(Eric Andeerson)
You've long been on the open road
You've been
sleepin in the rain
From the dirt of words and mud of cell
Your clothes are dark and
stained.
But the dirty words and muddy cells
Will soon be judged insane
So only stop
and rest yourself
Till you'll be off again.
Then take off your thirsty
boots
And stay for awhile
Your feet are hot and weary
From a dusty
mile
And maybe I can make you laugh
Maybe if I try
I'm just lookin'
for the evening
And the morning in your eyes.
But tell me of the ones you
saw
As far as you could see
Across the plain from field to town
A-marching to be
free
And of the rusted prison gates
That tumbled by degree
Like laughing children one
by one
Who looked like you and me
CHORUS
I know you are no stranger
down
The crooked rainbow trails
From dancing cliff-edged shattered sills
Of slender
shackled jails
But the voices drift up from below
As the walls they're being
scaled
All of this and more my friend
Your song shall not be failed.
