The Nightwatchman - The Road I Must Travel lyrics

rate me

Well I climbed the seven summits

And I swam the seven seas

But the road that I must travel

It's end I cannot see

Well I fought in the jungles

And I fought in the streets

But the road I must travel

It's end I cannot see

Once I had a reason

Don't know what it could be

And the road I must travel

It's end I cannot see

Well I sang to myself

And I want to be free

But the road I must travel

It's end I cannot see

Na na na na na...

Well I walked the empty desert

And was burned in the heat

But the road I must travel

It's end I cannot see

Well I crossed the frozen wasteland

And the bitter cold did freeze

And the road I must travel

It's end I cannot see

And I will knock on every door

For I do not have a key

And the road I must travel

It's end I cannot see

Well I sand to myself

And I wanna be free

But the road I must travel

It's end I cannot see

Na na na na na...

He shot a man in So Ho

Couldn't guess his age

I found his empty journal

I filled up every page

I called up my state senator

And they said he wasn't there

The secretary took my name

And man, she sounded scared

So I counted my misfortunes

I added up a blame

I picked through all the garbage

I checked off all the names

I read in the newspaper

They questioned all my friends

They hoped that they could find my ass

Before I struck again

So I sang to myself

That I wanna be free

But the road I must travel

It's end I cannot see

So when thirsty I will drink

And when hungry I will steal

But the road I must travel

It's end I cannot see

And so tonight I walk in anger

With worn shoes on my feet

And the road I must travel

It's end I cannot see

And I'll sing to myself

That I'm gonna be free

But the road I must travel

It's end I cannot see

Na na na na na...

There's a sign along the highway

But it's too dark now to read
