I wish there were still highway men
Roaming upon the street
Winning booty with their style and flair
Availing of treasures everyone they meet
I wish the pirates still rode the seas
Spotting mermaids and entertaining wicked thoughts
Then back on land with their gold hoop earring
Winning hearts at every port
Oh to see the Indian Brave
Copper and strong, so silent
Sweep in and capture the maid unaware
Then make her love him with a love so violent
Why are there no more gallant knights
To ride into battle in splendor and glory
Wearing his ladys lace close to his heart
Why is this only heard in a story?
What became of the gypsy man
Who wandered so far and so free
Living life so full with such passion
And awakening someone like me?
And the handsome Lieutenants
Are they still there?
Do they still dance and flirt
Before marching off with that dignified air?
Where are the storybook heroes
To win a girls heart?
It just seems that these days
For them there is no part.
