Tinted glass and steel All our dreams behind a steering wheel Don't mind the distance, time flies in an instant Hot flamingo pink, you can see us from a mile away Waking up the neighbours We're blaring out the speaker It doesn't matter if the brakes aren't working You know these worn-out wheels will still be turning Pavement is burning We are We are born to be the midnight riders Don't matter where we go, we always go together We are We are born to be the midnight riders Every day, we play rock and roll forever Last night we made a plan To drive out to Cali So we loaded up the van and we bailed out the alley Our rusted-out muffler and a bumper held with duct tape You can't miss us now 'cause We're famous on the interstate It doesn't matter if the brakes aren't working You know these worn-out wheels still will be turning Pavement is burning We are We are born to be the midnight riders Don't matter where we go, we always go together We are We are born to be the midnight riders Every day, we play rock and roll forever Rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling Don't matter where we're going We go our own way (we go our own way) Rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling The midnight lights are glowing We drive all night and all day We are We are born to be the midnight riders Don't matter where we go, we always go together We are We are born to be the midnight riders Every day, we play rock and roll forever Forever Forever Rock and roll forever
