Walk Off The Earth - The Highwayman lyrics

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 ba*tards 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 sailed 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 k**ed: 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 I'll always be 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
