Lyrics for Further On Up The Road
Where the road is dark and the seed is sowed Where the gun is cocked and the bullet's cold Where the miles are marked in the blood and 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 song to sing I got a song to sing, keep 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
