I was a highwayman
Along the coach roads
I did ride
With 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 bastards 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 horn to
MexicoI went aloft to furl the mainsail in a blow
And when the yards broke off they said that
I got killed
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
ColoradoI slipped and fell into the wet concrete below
They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound
But I am still around.
I'll always be around, and around, and around, and around, and around.
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 canPerhaps
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 againand again, and again, and again, and again...
