lirik lagu bill sutton - dust on my feet

i was born a traveling man
in a family bound by the law to the land
for twenty~five years i grew scars on my hands
in a world without dreams, sowing seeds, driving teams

but i saw the transports leap for the sky
where they kidnapped my soul from the corn and the rye
i tore at the chains of my life till i cried
and i ran to the bars and the crews and the stars

i don’t know where i’m going, son
but it’s far away from the things i’ve done
i’ve got time on my hands and dust on my feet
i’ve got worlds to find and friends to meet
and i can’t go down and be earthbound no more

paid my dues in freight yard and hold
scrubbing decks damp and musty with mildew and mold
long weeks hauling cratеs in the dark and the cold
for just twelvе hours down on some alien ground

so i spent my pay on stationer wh0res
getting drunk just to blot out the freight~lifter’s roar
dealing cards over men who lay dead on the floor
till the drive and its song drew me back, called me on
i don’t know where i’m going, son
but it’s far away from the things i’ve done
i’ve got time on my hands and dust on my feet
i’ve got worlds to find and friends to meet
and i can’t go down and be earthbound no more

won a ship playing hold~’em and stud
hauled her out of disgrace where she lay in the mud
built her up, made her whole through my sweat and my blood
and i cheated and lied just to learn how to fly

so i forged a trade in alien stone
seeking planets no miner has ever called home
with wonders man never was destined to own
coming in for a day and then back on my way

but the years have ebbed like the tide
and the specter of death takes the seat by my side
but i will not have died like my grandfathers died
lying trapped in the dirt of an uncaring earth
i will end my life at the edges of sp~ce
leaving worlds and tomorrow behind in my place
all the stars in the spiral will shine in my face
and when death hauls me in, i will set out again
