Testo The Highway Man - with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra - Willie Nelson feat. Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, Johnny Cash & Royal Philharmonic Orchestra
Testo della canzone The Highway Man - with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (Willie Nelson feat. Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, Johnny Cash & Royal Philharmonic Orchestra), tratta dall'album Johnny Cash and The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra
I was a highwayman
Along the coach roads I did ride
With sword and pistol by my side
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade
The bastards hung me in the spring of '25
But I am still alive
I was a sailor
I was born upon the tide
And with the sea, I did abide
I sailed a schooner 'round the Horn of Mexico
I went aloft and furled the mainsail in a blow
And when the yards broke off, they said that I got killed
But I am living still
I was a dam builder across the river deep and wide
Where steel and water did collide
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below
They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound
But I am still around
I'll always be around and around
And around and around and around
And around and around
I'll fly a starship across the Universe divide
And when I reach the other side
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
But I will remain
And I'll be back again
And again and again
And again and again
And again and again
Again and again
And again and again
And again and again
And again
