[00:10.106] I was a highwayman
[00:12.938] Along the coach roads I did ride
[00:15.862] With sword and pistol by my side
[00:21.132] Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
[00:27.327] Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade
[00:32.543] The bastards hung me in the spring of '25
[00:38.786] But I am still alive
[00:45.635] I was a sailor
[00:47.838] I was born upon the tide
[00:51.650] And with the sea I did abide
[00:57.005] I sailed a schooner 'round the Horn to Mexico
[01:02.964] I went aloft and furled the mainsail in a blow
[01:08.718] And when the yards broke off, they said that I got killed
[01:14.757] But I am livin' still
[01:21.071] I was a dam builder
[01:24.066] Across the river deep and wide
[01:27.201] Where steel and water did collide
[01:32.426] A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
[01:38.026] I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below
[01:44.295] They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound
[01:50.273] But I am still around
[01:54.349] I'll always be around, and around, and around
[01:58.780] And around, and around, and around
[02:07.905] I'll fly a starship
[02:10.925] Across the universe divide
[02:14.349] And when I reach the other side
[02:19.585] I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
[02:25.416] Perhaps, I may become a highwayman again
[02:31.058] Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
[02:37.648] But I will remain
[02:39.939] And I'll be back again, and again, and again,
[02:45.802] and again, and again, and again
