LYRICS:
(Saul): Old Damascus Highway – roll on to the sea
Got to live life my way – no, and I can’t be told
My heart’s too cold, now, to grow
Got to get on – got to get off – let me go – aah
(Angels): Aah, you lived for life but you’ve died and something Touched you inside they stole your soul and you threw your
Heart away but you can’t end life that way

(Sarah appears in a dream – Saul & Sarah): Don’t you know
What we’re feeling tonight isn’t wrong – if our lovin’s all right
If you run – you know it’s not like before
You’re the one – I can’t take it no more
Won’t you get along down, get down, now – don’t let me go
They’ve been movin’ my mind around you better never say no

(Angels): Hey, peaceful dreamer – where you headin’ for
Don’t you know that train don’t stop here no more
No more, boy – we hear you got yourself a woman
Well, she’s fine – but don’t look back
You’re burnin’ too much fuel ‘bout to jump the track
Don’t look back, boy

(Saul & Sarah): Sunday mornin’ on my mind
Love this good-time-feelin’ so good – all the time
Soon I’m headin’ home – on this

Old Damascus Line

Yeah, Damascus
Boy, you’ve been good to me, girl
You got me dreamin’ of the finest woman
In the whole wide world
And when I get home I see her smilin’ face
I’ve made my mind up to leave this place
I can’t carry this load – I ain’t runnin’ this race – no more

(Saul): Damascus Highway – roll on to the sea
Got to live life my way, no, and I can’t be told
My heart’s too cold, now, to grow
Got to get on – got to get off – let me go – aah
(Angels): Aah, you lived for life but you died
And something touched you inside
They stole your soul and you threw your heart away
But you can’t end life that way

(Saul & Sarah): Don’t you know what we’re feeling tonight
Isn’t wrong – if our lovin’s all right
If you run – you know it’s not like before
You’re the one – I can’t take it no more!
Won’t you get along down, get down, now – don’t let me go
They’ve been movin’ my mind around – you better never say no

(Angels): Hey, peaceful dreamer – get up you’ll miss the fun
You’ve been sleepin’ so late so long boy you’ve missed “The Son”
That’s no fun boy – you know we’ve seen you in the courtyard
So still so all alone – no more goin’ back to hold your lover
No more goin’ home – (Sarah) “Come on home, boy”

(Saul & Sarah): Sunday mornin’ on my mind
Love this good-time-feelin’ so good all the time
Soon I’m headin’ home – on this

Old Damascus Line

Yeah, Damascus
Boy, you’ve been good to me, girl
You got me dreamin’ of the finest woman
In the whole wide world
So when I get home I see her smilin’ face
I’ve made my mind up to leave this place
I can’t carry this load
I ain’t runnin’ this race – no more
(Saul) I can’t take it no more, Lord

Oh, Damascus Highway – roll on to the sea
Gotta live life my way – no, I can’t be told
My heart’s too cold, now, to grow – got to get on
Got to get off – let me go

(Angels): Aah, you lived for life but you died
And something touched you inside
They stole your soul
And you threw your heart away
But you can’t end life this way
