"Vagabond" Lyrics

hey yeah yeah yeah

i know of a man
who lives on the other side
on the other side of this mountain
they say he's calling the weary home.

i've been told of a man
who walks on the other side
on the other side of this mountain
with a heart full of stories of hope.

hey yeah yeah yeah

so run like a vagabond
carry the flame
run for the children and run for the slaves
hold it up high with a message of faith
don't ever stop moving on
just run like a vagabond.

his book is a gun
that he reads for the people
the words that he speaks
have been colored illegal
but the law that he's under
is bigger than paper and gowns.

he stays in the streets
where the beggars are broken
risking his life
a bull's eye in the open
but he won't stop to rest
until he's reached every town.

o, so run like a vagabond
carry the flame
run for the children and run for the slaves
hold it up high with a message of faith
don't ever stop moving on
just run like a vagabond.

hey oh...
oh...

run like a vagabond
carry the flame
run for the children and run for the slaves
hold it up high with a message of faith
don't ever stop moving on...

so run like a vagabond
carry the flame
run for the children and run for the slaves
hold it up high with a message of faith
don't ever stop moving on
just run like a vagabond
run like a vagabond
(hey yeah yeah yeah)
run like a vagabond
(hey yeah yeah yeah)
run like a vagabond
(so run like a vagabond
carry the flame
run like a vagabond
carry the flame)
