ashley campbell - highwayman lyrics

highwayman lyrics
[verse 1]
i was a highwayman
along the coach roads, i did ride
with sword and pistol by my side
many a young maid lost their baubles to my trade
many a soldier shed his life blood on my blade
they finally hung me in the spring of ’25
but i am still alive

[verse 2]
i was a sailor
and i was born upon the tide
and with the sea, i did abide
i sailed a schooner ’round the h+rn to mexico
i went aloft to furl the mainsail in a blow
and when the yards broke off, they say that l got k!lled
but i’m living still

[verse 3]
and i was a dam builder
across the rivers deep and wide
where steel and water did collide
a place called boulder on the wild colorado
i slippеd and fell into the wet concrеte below
they buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound
but i am still around
i guess i’ll always be around and around and around and around
[verse 4]
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

[outro]
ba+ba+ba, ba+da+da+da+da
