Karaoké Highwayman The Highwaymen

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 lifeblood on my blade

The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty five but I am still alive

I was a sailor

I was born upon the tide

And with the sea I did abide

I sail a schooner 'round the Horn to Mexico

I went aloft and furled 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 wild

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

I'll always be around and around and around

And around and around and around and around

I 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
