Lyrics
Well I’ve been on the road,
So long,
Been tired and broke,
So long,
I’ve been to the South where the winds they were warm,
Trav’ling the road of no return,
So long.

And I’ve seen what was war,
So long,
The ruins and the scars,
So long,
The mansions of mid, the wounds and the blood,
Seen the dying of all that was good,
So long.

This world’s in a shroud,
So long,
The mushrooming cloud,
So long,
The lies and the greed of the leaders of men,
Those cheats who would take us to war again,
So long.

Yet hope lives in me,
So long,
It’s love that I see,
So long,
The courage and strength of the young man’s smile,
The faith that’s in a little child,
So long.

Yes, I’ve been on the road.
So long,
Been tired and broke,
So long,
I’ve been to the South where the winds they are warm,
Travelling the road of no return,
So long.
