man sticks his fingers inside of his mouth / The words are stuck in there, he fishes them out / Whispers and mumbles, statements and verse / Curses and love songs for nobody else / Man takes his pencil and puts down his thoughts/ the old human high way from (east) to north/ brothers and sisters, husbands and wives/ strangers and crippled/ in love with their lives/ how they dance in a trance/where the river bends/ here we go, don`t you know/ that it never ends/summer arrives, summer slides/everyone you know/travels that great western road/how they laugh, raise a glass/ (spring) a bottle down/any face, every place in this northern town/drag it on, suffer more pass (...)/travel on that great western road
man goes to show world and dreams of the stars/he leans to the left, he leans to the north/he learns to be humble/he learns from the trees/and all of gods creatures/to him they would speak/wake up, my little lambs/ wake up, its time to begin/ wake up, its all that you are/ wake up, and its not very far/ (...) man, soldierman, beggerman and thieve/some are young, some are old/and some on their knees/broken limbs, broken nose, swinging to and fro/as they walk the great western road/every man, every bird, every creeping thing/like a knife in the night i`ll see her again/pleasant (...) pleasant word, pleasant skin and bone/all along that great western road
