[ti:The Highwayman] [ar:Carl Wilson] [al:Sing Me An Old Fashioned Song] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]The Highwayman - Carl Wilson [00:10.13]I was a highwayman [00:12.44]Along the coach roads I did ride [00:15.69] [00:17.03]With sword and pistol by my side [00:19.79] [00:22.02]Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade [00:25.88] [00:27.79]Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade [00:32.49] [00:33.83]The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five [00:37.86] [00:39.21]But I am still alive [00:42.00] [00:45.75]I was a sailor [00:47.44] [00:48.35]I was born upon the tide [00:51.00] [00:52.78]And with the sea I did abide [00:55.78] [00:57.59]I sailed a schooner round the Horn to Mexico [01:01.41] [01:03.58]I went aloft and furled the mainsail in a blow [01:07.99] [01:09.55]And when the yards broke off they said that I got killed [01:13.45] [01:14.82]But I am living still [01:17.37] [01:21.62]I was a dam builder [01:23.17] [01:23.92]Across the river deep and wide [01:26.81] [01:28.49]Where steel and water did collide [01:31.68] [01:33.32]A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado [01:37.35] [01:39.28]I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below [01:43.11] [01:45.29]They buried me in that great tob that knows no sound [01:49.76] [01:50.59]But I am still around [01:53.34] [01:55.34]I'll always be around [01:57.58]And around and around and around and around and around [02:03.69] [02:08.44]I fly a star ship [02:10.62] [02:11.49]Across the Universe divide [02:14.31] [02:16.18]And when I reach the other side [02:19.32] [02:21.01]I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can [02:25.05] [02:26.80]Perhaps I may become a highwayman again [02:30.69] [02:32.97]Or I may simply be a single drop of rain [02:36.81] [02:38.18]But I will remain [02:40.30] [02:42.87]And I'll be back again and again and again and again and again
