Studio Sessions: The Rising
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 blood and gold
I'll meet you further on up the road
Got on my dead man's suit and my smiling skull ring
My lucky graveyard boots and a song to sing
I got a song to sing to 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 morning we'll rise I know
And I'll meet you further on up the road
Now I been out in the desert just doing my time
Searching through the dust looking for a sign
If there's a light up ahead, well brother I don't know
But I got this fever burning in my soul
So let's take the good times as they go
And I'll meet you further on up the road
Further on up the road
Further on up the road
Further on up the road
Further on up the road
One sunny morning we'll rise I know
And I'll meet you further on up the road
One sunny morning we'll rise I know
And I'll meet you further on up the road
