Waylon Jennings - Highwayman lyrics

[Willie Nelson's Verse] 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 [Kris Kristofferson's Verse] 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 [Waylon Jennings's Verse] 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 [Johnny Cash's Verse] I fly a star-ship 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
