Night Rider Lyrics

Artist: Elvis Presley
Album: Pot Luck

(Words & music: Doc Pomus / Mort Shuman)

Night rider, night rider,
You may think that itâ‚¬â„¢s the breeze
Whispering through the lonely trees,
But itâ‚¬â„¢s only him aâ‚¬â„¢flying round the bend
As the day comes to that end.

Night rider, night rider,
He came riding into town
As the sun was going down,
Saw my baby and he smiled her heart away,
Now what will I do today.

Cautioned my baby to stay at home,
Not to leave mamaâ‚¬â„¢s side,
She laughed when I told her take care, take care,
Or youâ‚¬â„¢ll share in his midnight ride.

Night rider, night rider,
Since he stole around the side
I ainâ‚¬â„¢t had a peaceful night,
Night rider, wonâ‚¬â„¢t you let my baby be,
Come on, send her back to me.

Cautioned my baby to stay at home,
Not to leave mamaâ‚¬â„¢s side,
She laughed when I told her take care, take care,
Or youâ‚¬â„¢ll share in his midnight ride.

Night rider, night rider,
Since he stole around the side
I ainâ‚¬â„¢t had a peaceful night,
Night rider, wonâ‚¬â„¢t you let my baby be,
Come on, send her back to me.
