Highwayman - Kris Kristofferson[00:00:00]
I was a highwayman Along the coach roads I did ride[00:00:10]
With sword and pistol by my side[00:00:17]
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade[00:00:22]
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade[00:00:28]
The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five[00:00:34]
But I am still alive [00:00:39]
I was a sailor I was born upon the tide[00:00:46]
And with the sea I did abide [00:00:53]
I sailed a schooner round the Horn to Mexico[00:00:57]
I went aloft and furled the mainsail in a blow[00:01:04]
And when the yards broke off they said that I got killed[00:01:09]
But I am living still [00:01:15]
I was a dam builder across the river deep and wide[00:01:17]
Where steel and water did collide[00:01:29]
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado[00:01:33]
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below[00:01:39]
They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound[00:01:41]
But I am still around I'll always be around and around and around and[00:01:51]
Around and around[00:01:59]
I fly a starship across the Universe divide[00:02:09]
And when I reach the other side[00:02:16]
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can[00:02:20]
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again[00:02:27]
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain[00:02:31]
But I will remain[00:02:38]
And I'll be back again and again and again and again and again[00:02:41]
