Further On Up the Road

Where the road is dark

And the seed is sown

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 smiling 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 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

Lookin' 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

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
