Verse 1 Jon Schaffer 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, I am still alive Verse 2 Russell Allen 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 killed But Im living still Verse 3 Stu Block 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 Ill always be around, and around, and around, and around, and around Verse 4 Michael Poulsen I fly a starship across the universe divide And when I reach the other side Ill 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 Ill be back again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again
