Living Like A Legend Lyrics - Arlo Guthrie

Coming down the highway, running like a wind 

Gonna beat the sunset to the coast and back again 

Moving through the shadows, almost going blind 

Living like a legend before my time 

If the road don't kill me, baby, I'll see you in the spring 

Making up for lost time between us seems like everything 

If I can make it home alright, you know, I'll treat you fine 

Living like a legend before my time 

I know, it wasn't easy for you, baby 

With your man out on the road 

So I'll be coming home tomorrow 

To try to help you carry the load 

I'm running out of highways and bridges to burn 

This kind of living is taking its toll on what I've learned 

You know, it ain't easy leaving you behind 

Living like a legend before my time 

But someday, baby, I'll be coming home to stay 

Wrapped up in your warm love every night and every day 

Ooh, I'm going out of my mind 

Living like a legend before my time 

I know, it wasn't easy for you, baby 

With your man out on the road 

So I'll be coming home tomorrow 

To try to help you carry the load 

I'll be getting up early 'cause I know, I'm coming home 

I'm so tired of living this legend life alone 

Kick off your shoes, babe, we'll drink a little wine 

Forget about living like a legend before my time 

Forget about living like a legend 

Just forget about the road 

So, look out for me, darling 

On account of your man is coming home
