| Lyrics: | Met an old man on the street,
A dirty hat laying at his feet,
I looked and saw adventure in
his eyes,
Singing them songs from yesterday,
>From over the hills and far away,
Lord
that old man hypnotized.
I went on in to my nine-to-five,
Hoping I could stay
alive,
I knew that something in my life was wrong,
All night long I could not sleep,
The
trouble here was buried deep,
I couldn't help but hear the old man's song.
I'm rolling
down the highway,
I fly the friendly skies,
I'm just a hobo,
I'm on the railroad tracks
tonight,
I'm dancing through the desert,
I see the city nights,
I'm just a sailor on the
sea of life.
The feeling swept right over me,
I left my home and my security,
I
finally found a place where I belong,
Back out here on the road again,
Going back where I
have never been,
Now I'm finally free to sing my song.
I'm rolling down the
highway,
I fly the friendly skies,
I'm just a hobo,
I'm on the railroad tracks
tonight,
I'm dancing through the desert,
I see the city nights,
I'm just a sailor on the
sea of life,
I'm just a sailor on the sea of life. |
