Night Rider

(альбом: Wolf Creek Pass - 1975)

Night rider

Well, a-trucking on the night line, quarter past five
Trying to get my rig an' me to 'Frisco alive
Fog lights up tight, a-giving me the creeps
Just a Winnemucca trucka with a load a' black sheep

Night rider

I got a belly full a' jelly and head full a' pain
Bennies spinning spider webs, a-messing my brain
Trying ta get myself together with a shot a' black C
What I really oughta get me is an hour a' Zs

Night rider, night rider, losing your mind
Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind
Night rider, night rider, losing your mind
Look at those lights, 'til you've gone blind

Well, Alabammy Mammy got a spell on my life
Kansas City Kitty cut my heart out tonight
I lost a C-note in Reno off a' Keno and craps
And now Smokey's on the overpass a-setting his traps
White lines lasers burning holes in my eyes
Feel like I'm hypnotized, think I'm gonna die
Interstate 80, gonna get me no sleep
Just a-winking and a-blinking with a stinking load a' sheep

Night rider, night rider, losing your mind
Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind
Night rider, night rider, losing your mind
Look at those lights, 'til you've gone blind

Night rider

Ba ba black sheep, have you any wool?
Yes sah, yes sah, three bags full
One for my master, and one for my dame
And one for Jimmy Bowen who lives in L.A.

Night rider, night rider, losing your mind (yeah)
Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind

Night rider, night rider, losing your mind
Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind
Night rider, night rider, losing your mind
Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind

Night rider, night rider, losing your mind
Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind
Night rider, night rider, losing your mind
Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind
Night rider, night rider, losing your mind
Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind
Night rider, night rider, losing your mind
Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind
Night rider, night rider, losing your mind
Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind
