Lyrics
HIGHWAY MAN
© Copyright 2004, Saij
Both hands up tonight
Trying to flag a car down
So many old headlights
But nobody sees my arms out
And did you hear that truck drive by
An old lady yellin like she?s going to die
And years ago and row by row
I?d like to tell you but I don?t know
I?m a highway man
Ya, I?ve been that go between
I held my dirty hands out
But I?m no Augustine
I growled and threw my voice out
Well, all the men, they yelled they screamed
?We can?t live with them,? do you know what I mean
Years ago and row by row
I?d like to tell you, but I don?t know
I?m a highway man
We came here cause my wife, she needed money
My daughter needed money, my son ? money
We came here cause I needed money
But nobody wants me, said nobody
I?m a highway man
