Highwaymen - Living Legend lyrics

(Nelson) Was it bitter then With our backs against the wall? (Kristofferson) Were we better men Than we'd ever been before? (Nelson) Say, if she came again today Would you still answer to the call? (Kristofferson) Tell the truth my friend Don't it matter anymore? (Nelson) We were simple men By her side when she was born (Kristofferson Spoken) Talkin' about the dream (Cash Sung It was simple then Like the freedom when you fall And we were smaller then you see But soon we gathered like a storm They don't understand What that thunder meant at all (Instrumental break) (Nelson) Was he crucified Was he done in by the law? (Kristofferson) Are you satisfied That he'll never ride again? (Jennings) Some people say he got away They say he never died at all (Cash) If that story's true Does it bother you my friend? (Kristofferson) Was it bitter then With our backs against the wall? Spoken Say, two thousand years ago (NelsonSung) Were we better men Than we'd ever been before? Spoken Or two hundred years ago (Kristofferson Sung) Say, if she came again today Would you still answer to the call? (Cash) Spoken Or tomorrow.) (Kristofferson Sung) Tell the truth my friend Don't it matter anymore?
