Man's Road Lyrics

Jimmy Webb Man's Road

Horizon rising up to meet the purple dawn
Dust demon screaming, bring an eagle to lead me on
For in my heart I carry such a heavy load
Here I am on Man's road, walking Man's road, walking
Man's road
I'm hungry, weary, but I cannot lay me down
The rain comes, dreary, but there's no shelter I have
found
It will be a long time till I find my abode
Here I am on Man's road, walking Man's road
Moon rising, disguising lonely streets in gay displays
The stars fade, the night shade falls and makes the world
afraid
It waits in silence for the sky to explode
Here I am on Man's road, walking Man's road, walking
Man's road
Walking Man's road, walking Man's road, walking Man's
road
