Lyrics: [Verse 1: Willie Nelson] 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 '25 But I am still alive [Verse 2: Kris Kristofferson] I was a sailor I was born upon the tide And with the sea I did abide I sailed a schooner around 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 [Verse 3: Waylon Jennings & All] I was a dam builder Across a 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 gray 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... [Verse 4: Johnny Cash & All] 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...
