Generate meaning
1
Many have gone before us now
2
Many have tried and failed somehow
3
Many soul on the Queen's highway
4
Where many a tail light glowed
5
With the promise of a better life
6
Heading South on the Great North Road
7
South on the Great North Road
8
Only the dark we left behind
9
Will chase us as the road unwinds
10
Out of sight is out of mind
11
With many a debt still owed
12
And the promise of a different life
13
Heading South on the Great North Road
14
South on the Great North Road
15
And many a dog went wandering
16
To sup on fortune's dregs
17
And many a dog came straggling home
18
His tail between his sorry legs
19
Many a caged bird spread his wings
20
Many a vain bird crowed
21
And many a songbird lost her way
22
Heading South on the Great North Road
23
South on the Great North Road
24
Many a band of brothers rode
25
In many a painted wagon
26
Many an unsecured load
27
Whenever a climbing truck was slowed
28
There was many a traveler's curse bestowed
29
Heading South on the Great North Road
30
South on the Great North Road
31
Many a transport greasy spoon
32
Many a wasted afternoon
33
Where many a maiden gave her heart
34
And many a gift bestowed
35
But a gift is a yoke to a traveling man
36
Heading South on the Great North Road
37
South on the Great North Road
38
If we get back home, we'll tell our tales
39
To all of those who'll listen
40
The might have beens, the chances lost
41
The monies that went missing
42
And all the memories we'll unload
43
The wild oats that we'll claim we'd sowed
44
The stages where we proudly strode
45
As if our cups had over flowed
46
With the promise of a different life
47
Heading South on the Great North Road
48
South on the Great North Road
Heading South On The Great North Road
