I'm ridin' high I ride alone I'll be your pa**in' fancy After that you're on your own So many miles And one night stands Visit me for a little while in my no man's land I don't ride for no one No one rides for free Just like smokestack lightnin' You can't catch me Move by night I'll be your hired gun One thousand c.c.'s of fuel-injected fun Don't mind a little action That's what I get paid for Don't mind a little blood For a few dollars more I don't ride for no one No one rides for free Just like smokestack lightnin' Yeah You can't catch me Stars overhead Wind in my face Fade to black Gone without a trace All you've got is tarnished memories Shoulda known You can't catch me No! Livin' like a gypsy One of the restless breed No one tells me what to do I just take what I need Love 'em and leave 'em Fatal pretense See, I'm a desperado I'll steal your innocence I don't ride for no one No one rides for free Just like smokestack lightnin' You can't catch me
