The Highwaymen Highwayman lyrics
[Willie Nelson:]
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 twenty-five
But I am still alive

[Kris Kristofferson:]
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 I am living still

[Waylon Jennings:]
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
I'll always be around, and around and around and around and around...

[Johnny Cash:]
I'll fly a starship
Across the Universe divide
And when I reach the other side
I'll 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 I'll be back again, and again and again and again and again...

It doesn't get much better than this. 4 of the finest on stage together. No ego bul...it just great music sung by the best. I love them.

[shirleymuhleisen]

Beautiful Reggie Young riffs throughout (black & white guitar)💝🤠

[AmericanPreacher]

This song was practically made for this group. It captures the magnitude of their individual legendary careers. Johnny cash being my favorite. He was so to say The Godfather of the outlaw movement with albums like “at Folsom prison”. He was light years ahead of the times and its fitting his part is the one who flies the starship light years away. He searches the universe for a place to rest his spirit but because of his legend and all their legends, they’ll continue to ride forever

[klausstoffele]

Schade das es nur noch zwei von ihnen gibt zwei sind noch da.danke gott dafür🎸🤠💖😊

[downhill]

God, I miss these wonderful musicians!

[tmdpc]

Amazing song. Amazing group of individuals.

[A_Pa-Plainjane]

wow, talk about big chills, running up and down my spine..

[charlestruebenbach]

This is what 60 years of music will get you!

[artredoubt]

One of my favorite versions, cuz the voices are distinct, and the sound is vibrant. This is the moment where all religions morph into one and we see we come from a mystery and return to that mystery, all of us joined in the same pilgrimage of souls, like individual raindrops to the sea and back to the sky again, so Christianity and Buddhism meet in the great singularity. Or just a simple but great country song, take your choice

[rockbandsinpaint]

i love Reggie Young and this play guitar, without him, this song would not sound as good without him and of course with his 4 good artists voices

[maureenrogers]

I went see highwaymen in buffalo, huge crowd. Crowd pushed up against the stage Waylon and Johnny backed up right away, Willy just kept playing. Kris took over right away told them if the didn’t sit they would stop playing. He had to tell them few times .Kris couldn’t stop laughing

[rambodonkeykong]

This channel should have subscriber's in the millions. Great channel and even greater music. #legends

[kylealexander]

[jasonkirktapayan]

O Salteador

Eu era um salteador
Pelas velhas estradas eu cavalguei
Com a espada e a pistola ao meu lado
Muitas jovens damas perderam suas bijuterias no meu trabalho
Muitos soldados derramaram seu sangue em minha lâmina
Os bastardos me enforcaram na primavera de 1925
Mas eu ainda estou vivo

Eu era um marinheiro
Eu nasci rente à maré
E com o mar eu me mantive
Eu navaguei em um veleiro em torno do Chifre do México
Eu subi para guardar as velas em uma corrente de vento
E quando os mastros se quebraram disseram que eu morri
Mas eu estou vivendo ainda

Eu era um construtor de barragens
Pelo rio profundo e denso
Onde a água e o aço se colidem
Um lugar chamado Boulder no selvagem Colorado
Eu escorreguei e caí no concreto molhado abaixo
Eles me enterraram em uma grande tumba que não conhece som algum
Mas eu ainda estou por aí
Eu sempre estarei por aí, e por aí, e por aí, e por aí, e por aí

Eu piloto uma espaçonave
Entre o universo dividido
E quando eu alcançar o outro lado
Acharei um lugar para descansar a minha alma se eu puder
Talvez eu me torne um salteador novamente
Ou eu serei simplesmente uma só gota de chuva
Mas eu vou remanescer
E eu voltarei de novo
E de novo e de novo e de novo e de novo

Highwayman

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 life blood 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 'round the Horn to Mexico
I went aloft to furl 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 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
I'll always be around, and around, and around, and around, and around

I'll fly a starship
Across the universe divide
And when I reach the other side
I'll 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 I'll be back again
And again, and again, and again, and again

Hey When The Cowboy Sings, I wanted to listen to the wonderful 1992 Aberdeen Highwaymen Live Concert, but I can't seem to find it anymore.. :-(
Did you take it down maybe?

[nomadnametab]

no song more expresses my own personal view . i was once asked what was my earliest memory. i thought and it came to me. i was in a room with pale green walls, light blue curtains, a wide plate glass window with adults looking in at me and a room full of other babies in cribs. and i thought; "well, here we go again." i knew exactly where i was and what was going on. and i met a truely gifted psychic once who told me about a deceased friend. she said this was the earliest and easiest death she has experienced. i asked just how old IS she? "oh, she's old. at least 2000 years. and you and she have been connected a half dozen times." and i took her seriously. everything else she said were things only the girl and i would have known. so we come back. again. and again . and again. and
