Hoover Dam continued; THE HIGHWAYMAN song is about a soul with incarnations in four different places in time and history: as a highwayman, a sailor, a construction worker on the Hoover Dam, and finally as a captain of a starship. The song was influenced by the real-life hanged highwayman Jonathan Wild.

"The Highwayman" music video performed by Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, and Kris Kristofferson;
