Brother, Do You Know the Road? Songtext
von Hiss Golden Messenger

Keep going

Oh, hey there brother, don′t you know the road?
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)
Oh, hey there brother, don't you know the road?
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)
There was no one good, and I was all alone
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)
Had a big black dog lay beside my door
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)

And a figure spoke in a mournful way
(Yes, my brother, I know the way)
So I hope that fiddle with my hands
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)
Then the fiddler said, "Hey now, hey now"
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)
Though not all the tunes are played like that
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)


And though the storm′s passed over
And the sun is in its place
Whoa, it took a long time
And the man, how I know him

The fiddler, fiddler take up your bow
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)
Play me a song that I don't know
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)
The winged daughter on my hand
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)
There ain't nothin′ that I will hum in fear
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)

Came along some song, patient as life
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)
Like the gladness in my daddy′s eye
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)
Like when I was a child, just a little boy
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)
The one within his crook of arm
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)


And though the storm's passed over
And the sun is in its place
Whoa, it took a long time
And the man, how I know him

Oh, hey there brother, don′t you know the road?
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)
Oh, hey there brother, don't you know, don′t you know the road?
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)
There was no one good, and I was all alone
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)
And a big black dog laid beside my door
(Yes, my brother, I know the road)
