She's a midnight rider on a shooting star
 Makes the whole world ring like a big guitar

 Well she flagged me down with the devil's sway
 It was somewhere down that lost highway
 She's a lifeboat on the raging sea
 She's the high note in the harmony

 She takes away my pain and sorrow
 Loves me like there's no tomorrow
 This, I can't resist
 In my life I realize
 I have never known a sweeter kiss
 Honey what I missed

 Got a piece of heaven right here on earth
 And believe me I know what it's worth
 She's an island dream on a rainy day
 She's a desperado's hideaway

 Hey now boys, take a look right here
 Only one comes 'round every million years
 She's a midnight rider on a shooting star
 Makes the whole world ring like a big guitar
