Here lies a road agent dead on a hill
Sing on, sing on, whip-poor-will if you will
He lived and died by his gun
Rise up, rise up morning sun
ย
Rise up son of God
Rise up from the sod
Quick money, catch penny, fly by night
All are equal in his sight
Gone today and here tomorrow
California desert to the vale of sorrow
Rise up sun and go
Rise up from below
ย
Thunderbolts call, the flash floods roll
On a glory hole soul story seldom told
From a feast of whiskey and a flow of cash
To a silver black ash from a dance hall flash
Rise up son of chance
Rise up son and dance
Here lies a road agent dead on a hill
Sing on, sing on, whip-poor-will if you will
