Lookin' outside, see a slitherin' coiled snake
Listenin' now to the wheels and the sound they make
I'm streaking through the midnight highway rain
And i'm leavin' a town and
I'm speedin' on to another one again
In the dead of night i slip from town to town
Not a soul in sight, only the midnight sounds
The miles and miles and miles of dotted lines
Will keep leadin' me down to a town,
And then i'll be leavin' once again
We're on a - midnite highway,
Winding through the midnight rain
Midnite highway, take me to my destiny
Speedin' along in a silver eagle bus
Well the road is long, it's the road we chose for us
We can't imagine life worth living staying home
We're a rock'n'roll band and we can't be stickin'
Around,
We gotta roam
We're on a - midnite highway,
Winding through the midnight rain
Midnite highway, take me to my destiny
Take me to another old lonely town,
Oh mama, sweet mama
Wake me with a sweet and gentle sound
New york, chicago, kansas city to l.a.
We keep goin' around and around,
We're gonna be leaving once again
We're on a - midnite highway,
Winding through the midnight rain
Midnite highway, take me to my destiny
