Midnight Rider - Saxon

Ride the silver eagle out of JFK

Up the eastern seaboard destination Portland Maine

When we saw the people at the concert hall

The seats were for five thousand it made us feel so small

Midnight rider keeps on rollin'

On our journey 'cross the States

Midnight rider keeps on rollin'

Right on through the USA

Stopped off at Niagara taking pictures of the falls

Tried to cross the border were accosted by the law

People down in Texas from the red hot burning sun

They couldn’t stand the heatwave but we just kept rollin' on

Midnight rider keeps on rollin'

On our journey 'cross the States

Midnight rider keeps on rollin'

Right on through the USA

Driving into Nashville on the highway interstate

Had a holdup on the freeway we end up being late

Flew into Chicago but we never heard the blues

Played some rock 'n' roll there then down to Batton Rouge

Midnight rider keeps on rollin'

On our journey 'cross the States

Midnight rider keeps on rollin'

Right on through the USA

Midnight rider keeps on rollin'

On our journey 'cross the States

Midnight rider keeps on rollin'

Right on through the USA

Fought the vigilante at the end of our first tour

We made a lot of friends there we’ll see them all next year

As we fought the big deadline, oh, we won’t forget the days

We rode the silver eagle right across the USA

Midnight rider keeps on rollin'

On our journey 'cross the States

Midnight rider keeps on rollin'

Right on through the USA

Midnight rider keeps on rollin'

On our journey 'cross the States

Midnight rider keeps on rollin'

Right on through the USA
