Further On Up the Road

Where the road is dark and the seed is sowed

Where the gun is cocked, as the bullet's cold

Where the miles are marked, in the blood and the gold

I'll meet you further on up the road

Got on my dead man's suit and my smilin' skull ring

My lucky graveyard boots and a song to sing

I got a song to sing, it keeps me out of the cold

And I'll meet you further on up the road.

Further on up the road

Further on up the road

Where the way is dark and the night is cold

One sunny mornin' we'll rise I know

And I'll meet you further on up the road.

Now I been out in the desert, just doin' my time

Searchin' through the dust, lookin' for a sign

If there's a light up ahead, well brother I don't know

But I got this fever burnin' in my soul

Further on up the road

Further on up the road

Further on up the road

Further on up the road

One sunny mornin' we'll rise I know

And I'll meet you further on up the road

One sunny mornin' we'll rise I know

And I'll meet you further on up the road.
