(bill fries, chip davis)



[a ghostly chorus]

Night rider



Well, a-truckin' on the night line, quarter past five

Tryin' to get my rig an' me to 'frisco alive

Fog lights up tight, a-givin' me the creeps

Just a winnemucca trucka with a load a' black sheep



[a ghostly chorus]

Night rider



I got a belly full a' jelly and head full a' pain

Bennies spinnin' spider webs, a-messin' my brain

Tryin' ta get myself together with a shot a' black c

What i really oughta get me is an hour a' zs



[chorus, but not ghostly]

Night rider, night rider, losin' your mind

Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind

Night rider, night rider, losin' 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-settin' his traps

White lines lasers burnin' holes in my eyes

Feel like i'm hypnotized, think i'm gonna die

Interstate 80, gonna get me no sleep

Just a-winkin' and a-blinkin' with a stinkin' load a' sheep



[chorus]

Night rider, night rider, losin' your mind

Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind

Night rider, night rider, losin' your mind

Look at those lights, 'til you've gone blind



[a ghostly chorus]

Night rider



[ghostly, but it's not the chorus]

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.





[chorus]

Night rider, night rider, losin' your mind (yeah)

Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind



[psychotic cackling here. he's losin' it.]



Night rider, night rider, losin' your mind

Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind

Night rider, night rider, losin' your mind

Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind



[fade out]

Night rider, night rider, losin' your mind

Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind

Night rider, night rider, losin' your mind

Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind

Night rider, night rider, losin' your mind

Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind

Night rider, night rider, losin' your mind

Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind

Night rider, night rider, losin' your mind

Look at those lights 'til you think you've gone blind
