highwayman (2010) - jimmy webb lyrics

Loading...

i was a highwayman
along the coach roads i did ride
with sword and pistol by my side

and many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
and many a soldier shed his life blood on my blade
they finally hung me in the spring of ’25
but i am still alive

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 said that i got k!lled
but i am living still

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
it all goes round and round, and round, and round, and round, and round, and round, and round, and round
bah, bum*dudum duduh*doh

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 still remain
i’ll be back again
