Man In Black - King of the Road[00:00:00]

Well you wonder why I always dress in black [00:00:09]

Why you never see bright colors on my back [00:00:14]

And why does my appearance[00:00:19]

Seem to have a somber tone [00:00:21]

Well there's a reason for the things that I have on [00:00:24]

I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down [00:00:29]

Livin' in the hopeless hungry side of town [00:00:34]

I wear it for the prisoner[00:00:39]

Who has long paid for his crime [00:00:41]

But is there because he's a victim of the times [00:00:44]

I wear the black for those who never read [00:00:49]

Or listened to the words that Jesus said [00:00:54]

About the road to happiness[00:00:59]

Through love and charity [00:01:01]

Why you'd think[00:01:04]

He's talking straight to you and me [00:01:04]

Well we're doin' mighty fine I do suppose [00:01:09]

In our streak of lightnin' cars and fancy clothes [00:01:14]

But just so we're reminded of the ones[00:01:19]

Who are held back [00:01:22]

Up front there ought 'a be a Man In Black [00:01:24]

I wear it for the sick and lonely old [00:01:29]

For the reckless ones[00:01:34]

Whose bad trip left them cold [00:01:35]

I wear the black in mournin' for the lives[00:01:39]

That could have been [00:01:42]

Each week we lose a hundred fine young men [00:01:44]

And I wear it for the thousands who have died [00:01:48]

Believen' that the Lord was on their side [00:01:54]

I wear it for another hundred thousand[00:01:59]

Who have died [00:02:02]

Believen' that we all were on their side [00:02:04]

Well there's things that never will be right I know [00:02:09]

And things need changin' everywhere you go [00:02:14]

But 'til we start to make a move[00:02:19]

To make a few things right [00:02:22]

You'll never see me wear a suit of white [00:02:24]

Ah I'd love to wear a rainbow every day [00:02:29]

And tell the world that everything's OK [00:02:34]

But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back [00:02:39]

'Till things are brighter [00:02:44]

I'm the Man In Black[00:02:46]
