Night Rider's Lament - Chris Ledoux[00:00:00]

While I was out[00:00:40]

A ridin'[00:00:43]

The grave yard shift midnight till dawn[00:00:45]

The moon was as bright as a readin' light[00:00:49]

For a letter from an old friend back home[00:00:54]

And he asked me[00:00:59]

Why do you ride for your money[00:01:01]

Why do you rope for short pay[00:01:06]

You ain't a gettin' nowhere and you're losin' your share[00:01:10]

You must have gone crazy out there[00:01:18]

Tells me last night he run on to Jenny[00:01:25]

She's married and has a good life[00:01:30]

Boy you sure missed the track when you never come back[00:01:34]

She's the perfect professional's wife[00:01:38]

And she asked him[00:01:44]

Why does he ride for his money[00:01:45]

Why does he rope for short pay[00:01:50]

He ain't a gettin' nowhere and he's losin' his share[00:01:54]

Well he must've gone crazy out there[00:02:02]

But they ain't never seen the northern lights[00:02:08]

They've never seen a hawk on the wing[00:02:14]

They've never seen spring at the great divide[00:02:18]

They've never heard ole camp cookie sing[00:02:26]

Well I read up the last of my letter[00:02:33]

Tore off the stamp for black Jim[00:02:38]

Bill he rode up to relieve me[00:02:42]

He just looked at my letter and grinned[00:02:46]

He said you know I wonder[00:02:52]

Why do they ride for their money[00:02:53]

Why do they ride for short pay[00:02:58]

They ain't a gettin' nowhere and they're loosin' their share[00:03:02]

They all must be crazy back there[00:03:10]

'Cause They ain't never seen the northern lights[00:03:16]

They've never seen a hawk on the wing[00:03:21]

They've never seen spring hit the great divide[00:03:26]

They've never heard ole camp cookie sing[00:03:34]
