somebody tell me why i work so hard for you song lyrics

I know I’ll never find, freedom from behind a gun.

The peace that I feel, was missing in my life as a robber. My mind is so clear, I wonder why I ever had to run. When will we find that I’m destined to be,įrom the mountain top, I’m looking out over the valley I’ve been praying for rest, this running’s just driving me mad. That brought me to take, everything the paymaster had.Īnd I’ve been running ever since, eluding every bounty hunter. It was 3 dusty years, slaving in the dark of the coal mine When will I find that I’m destined to be, I’ve been running in my mind from the fear of being put in jail. There’s a posse on my trail, trying hard to bring me to justice.

Robbing every town taking their gold in my quest. I’ve been running too long searching for elusive treasure. The hot desert sun, gives me no place to hide. The mountains in the distance, hidden on the hazy horizon. The desert and the sea stretching out on either side. I’m riding on a ridge, thundering hooves beneath me pounding. Anyway, here's the lyrics I remember from the song Riding on a Ridge: If you know this song or remember it at all, please help as I am desperately searching. The singer is male, and the genre would be consider metaphysical/spiritual. Riding on a Ridge (what I will be sharing the lyrics for shortly) You Are A Light (Also the title of the cassette) I am really hoping someone out there knows the songs on the cassette (yeah, it's from the late 80's to early 90's) What I don't know is the artist that did it. Ok, I know most of the lyrics, I even know the ablum.
