To Be With You Again

I cannot wait for dawn to break I must be on my way Before I pass this way again Be many a dark, dark day The sheriff does not know my face He does not know my name But before the sun goes down again He'll know them just the same One kiss before I leave you And one more for the wind Everyday I hope and pray To be with you again Between a poor man's word and a rich man's gold Who's chances would you choose The judge and jury close their eyes And justice don't come true I'll run from what I haven't done 'Cause the long arm of the law Has got a silver spade that'll dig my grave In Fort Smith, Arkansas One kiss before I leave you And one more for the wind Everyday I hope and pray To be with you again Down along the railroad tracks Waitin' in the weeds The first freight train to the leave the yard Will be the one for me I'll find a place on the box car roof Where the wind cuts cold and deep I don't know need no rail road man To catch me in my sleep One kiss before I leave you And one more for the wind Everyday I hope and pray To be with you again To be with you again
