Lyrics:

Out along the road

That’s life for me

A highwayman I’ll be

Better that than hung upon your love

Masquerading yeah

Riding on the land

Raising all the hands

Deliver to the badmen of your town



And I feel alright

In the middle of the night

With my guns beside me in my bed

And I know some day if I have to ride away

I will still be a legend in your head

Yes I’ll always be a legend to be read



In the cloak of blue

Here I must remain

Cold from wind and rain

How I long to be home with you

We were to be wed

But I chose to be free

A highwayman I’ll be

Now I find it’s not the life for me



And I feel alright

In the middle of the night

With my guns beside me in my bed

And I know some day if I have to ride away

I will still be a legend in your head

Yes I’ll always be a legend to be read



But I don’t feel right in the middle of the night

Without you beside me in my bed

And I know some day

That’s they’ll carry me away

With a bullet embedded in my head

But I’ll still be a legend to be read





And I feel alright

In the middle of the night

With my guns beside me in my bed

And I know some day if I have to ride away

I will still be a legend in your head

Yes I’ll always be a legend to be read





And I feel alright

In the middle of the night

With my guns beside me in my bed

And I know some day if I have to ride away

I will still be a legend in your head

Yes I’ll always be a legend to be read
