glen campbell – highwayman lyrics
i was a highwayman along the coach roads i did ride
with the sword and pistol by my side
many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
many a soldier shed his life blood on my blade
the b-st-rds 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 h-rn of mexico
i went aloft to furl the mainsail in a blow
and when the yards broke off they say that i got killed
but i am living still, perhaps i’ll always, i don’t know
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, seems like it all goes ’round and ’round and ’round
and ’round and ’round yes it goes when here we go
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
yes, i will when here we go but i’ll be back again
yes, i will when here we go but i’ll be back again
