I was just a kid of sixteen |
| [00:34.453] |
I wasn't even grown |
| [00:37.369] |
looking for a new direction |
| [00:40.599] |
A road to call my own |
| [00:46.326] |
And I found it in the songs of Woody Guthrie |
| [00:49.613] |
Of the lost and dispossessed |
| [00:53.119] |
I found it in the arms of the night-time girls |
| [00:56.359] |
Who held me to their breast |
| [01:09.683] |
|
| [01:17.951] |
I did not care for fortune |
| [01:21.276] |
I did not care for fame |
| [01:24.776] |
I threw away a lot of kindness |
| [01:27.779] |
I only have myself to blame |
| [01:33.585] |
For there were some who gave me shelter |
| [01:37.251] |
And some who eased my way |
| [01:40.282] |
But no matter what they offered |
| [01:43.808] |
They could never make me stay |
| [01:49.881] |
It was all I ever wanted |
| [01:53.134] |
All I ever knew |
| [01:56.412] |
To ride that endless highway |
| [01:59.672] |
And sing my songs for you |
| [02:20.409] |
And some will make you promises |
| [02:23.491] |
But that doesn't make it true |
| [02:27.344] |
Nothing is for nothing |
| [02:30.555] |
You have to pay your dues |
| [02:36.757] |
And now my pocket's empty |
| [02:39.511] |
And the reckoning is made |
| [02:42.818] |
I owe nobody nothing |
| [02:46.387] |
'Cause every bill is paid |
| [02:52.338] |
It was all I ever wanted |
| [02:55.742] |
All I ever knew |
| [02:58.905] |
To ride that endless highway |
| [03:02.234] |
And sing my songs for you |
| [03:16.967] |
|
| [03:22.775] |
I've not made it yet to journey's end |
| [03:26.069] |
But I know the day will come |
| [03:29.301] |
When I look down that endless highway |
| [03:32.761] |
And I turn and head for home |
| [03:38.793] |
And I'll pass the dream to someone new |
| [03:42.245] |
And help them on their way |
| [03:45.401] |
I'll shake their hands and wish them well |
| [03:48.932] |
And watch them walk away |
| [03:55.054] |
It was all I ever wanted |
| [03:58.045] |
All I ever knew |
| [04:01.541] |
To ride that endless highway |
| [04:04.860] |
And sing my songs for you |
| [04:09.390] |
