Artist/Band: The Highwaymen
Lyrics for Song: If He Came Back Again
Lyrics for Album: The Road Goes On Forever [2005]



You'd have thought a king had died

The way those people cried

Instead of one more broken entertainer



It struck those in his trade

He could have had it made

If he'd only been a little saner



They traveled far to see him

Oh, the humble and the high

They said goodbye as if he were a friend



Now somewhere he is smiling

On those who idolized him

But would they even recognize him

If he came back again?



He was born of modest means

But had outrageous dreams

They never let him rest

Till he fulfilled them



While he rode that train of song

His devils tagged along

The whiskey and the pills

Just couldn't kill him



He didn't mean to be a rebel

Nor the real ones never do

They're born apart from ordinary men



And somewhere he is smiling

On those who sanctified him

But would they even recognize him

If he came back again?



And it's an old familiar story

But it's a damn shame none the less

They don't forgive his kind

Until they lay them down to rest



And somewhere he is smiling

On those who idolized him

But would they even recognize him

If he came back again?



If he came back again

Back again
