Highwayman--Willie Nelson[00:00:01]
I was a highwayman[00:00:10]
Along the coach roads I did ride[00:00:11]
Sword and pistol by my side[00:00:18]
Many a young maid lost her baubbles to my trade[00:00:22]
Many a soldier shed his life blood on my blade[00:00:28]
The bastards hung me in the spring of '25[00:00:31]
But I am still alive[00:00:39]
I was a sailor[00:00:46]
I was born upon the tide[00:00:47]
The way of the sea I did abide[00:00:53]
I sailed a schooner 'round the horn of mexico[00:00:57]
I went aloft to furl the mainsail so little blow[00:01:04]
And when the yards broke off they said that i got killed[00:01:06]
But I am living still[00:01:13]
I was a dam builder[00:01:22]
Across the river deep and wide[00:01:24]
Where steel and water did collide[00:01:28]
A place called boulder on the wild colorado[00:01:33]
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below[00:01:38]
They burried me in that grey tomb that knows no sound[00:01:45]
But I am still around[00:01:50]
I'll always be around and around and around and around and around and around [00:01:54]
I fly a star ship[00:02:02]
Across the universe divide[00:02:11]
And when i reach the other side[00:02:15]
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can[00:02:20]
I may become a highwayman again[00:02:26]
Or i may simply be a single drop of rain[00:02:32]
But I will remain[00:02:37]
And I'll be back again and again and again[00:02:41]
