Paths of Victory Songtext
von The Byrds

Trails of troubles
Roads of battles
Paths of victory
I shall walk

The trail is dusty
And my road it might be rough
But the better roads are waiting
And boys it ain′t far off

Trails of troubles.

I walked down by the river
I turned my head up high
I saw that silver linin'
That was hangin′ in the sky

Trails of troubles


The evenin' dusk was rollin'
I was walking down the track
There was a one-way wind a-blowin′
And it was blowin′ at my back

Trails of troubles

The gravel road is bumpy
It's a hard road to ride
But there′s a clearer road a-waitin'
With the cinders on the side

Trails of troubles

That evening train was rollin′
The hummin' of its wheels
My eyes they saw a better day
As I looked across the fields

Trails of troubles.

The trail is dusty
The road it might be rough
But the good road is a-waitin′
And boys it ain't far off

Trails of troubles
