Just a young man
By an old room
By an old tune

Ancient song
Old town
Born as a man
With a song

Born carrying a heavy load
Ain't going' no further
Down the long long road
Born carrying a heavy load
Ain't goin' no further
Down the long long road

By a bright stream came an old dream
Things are never what they always seem
So he went on travelling on
Now he's a long way from home

Born carrying a heavy load
Ain't going' no further
Down the long long road
Born carrying a heavy load
Ain't goin' no further
Down the long long road
