Lyrics[]

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

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

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...
