step right up! - the end pt. 1: this little-traveled road lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
these woods are empty, save for me
and two horses long since gone to seed
old master ambrose sent me out to see them fed
but as it happens, they’ll not see our camp again
the lawman caught me unawares
with a smile that never reached his eyes, he said
“what brings a lad of so few years to this little-traveled road?
might you belong to a certain nearby carnival?”

[pre-chorus 1]
i tried in vain to steal away
i barreled right into his men
each grabbed an arm, their captain said
“you’re that tom cutler’s boy, i’d bet
were i a betting man”
and i thought, “well, that’s a wager that you’d win…

[chorus]
but a family is more than common blood
it is an oath, it is a promise kept
and me, i have no father but the show
you will not take from me the only home i have”

[verse 2]
“i have other cares than truancy,” he said
“in fact, i could still set you free
if you could single out for me the newest of your band
i have good reason to suspect you’ve hired some hands”

[pre-chorus 2]
i must admit this gave me pause
i’d sooner perish than return
but then the guards relaxed their hold
i broke free and fled into the woods

[chorus 2]
a family is more than common blood
it is an oath, it is a promise kept
and me, i have no father but the show
you will not take from me the only home i have
the only home i have
