|
Out along the road |
|
That's life for me |
|
A highwayman I'll be |
|
Better that than hung upon your love |
|
Masquerading yeah |
|
Riding on the land |
|
Raising all the hands |
|
Deliver to the badmen of your town |
|
And I feel alright |
|
In the middle of the night |
|
With my guns beside me in my bed |
|
And I know some day if I have to ride away |
|
I will still be a legend in your head |
|
Yes I'll always be a legend to be read |
|
In the cloak of blue |
|
Here I must remain |
|
Cold from wind and rain |
|
How I long to be home with you |
|
We were to be wed |
|
But I chose to be free |
|
A highwayman I'll be |
|
Now I find it's not the life for me |
|
And I feel alright |
|
In the middle of the night |
|
With my guns beside me in my bed |
|
And I know some day if I have to ride away |
|
I will still be a legend in your head |
|
Yes I'll always be a legend to be read |
|
But I don't feel right in the middle of the night |
|
Without you beside me in my bed |
|
And I know some day |
|
That's they'll carry me away |
|
With a bullet embedded in my head |
|
But I'll still be a legend to be read |
|
And I feel alright |
|
In the middle of the night |
|
With my guns beside me in my bed |
|
And I know some day if I have to ride away |
|
I will still be a legend in your head |
|
Yes I'll always be a legend to be read |
|
And I feel alright |
|
In the middle of the night |
|
With my guns beside me in my bed |
|
And I know some day if I have to ride away |
|
I will still be a legend in your head |
|
Yes I'll always be a legend to be read |
