Highwayman

But I will remain and I'll be back again and again and again
I went aloft and furled the mainsail in a blow
But I am still alive
I was a sailor, I was born upon the tide
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
But I am living still
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
And when I reach the other side
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade
And with the sea I did abide
But I am still around, I'll always be around and around and around
And around and around and around
Where steel and water did collide
I sailed a schooner 'round the horn to Mexico
I fly a starship across the universe divide

I was a dam builder across the river deep and wide
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below

They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound
And when the yards broke off they said that I got killed

I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five
