Some songs don’t just get sung — they reincarnate, carrying pieces of every life they’ve touched. ✨ “Highwayman” is one of those rare songs. Brought to life by the legendary supergroup — Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, and Kris Kristofferson — it unfolds as a ballad told through four voices, each one a chapter in the eternal journey of a restless spirit. With every verse, a new life emerges — a drifter, a sailor, a dam builder, a star-wanderer — yet all tied together by the same undying soul. What few realize is that Jimmy Webb wrote it not just as a song, but as a meditation on reincarnation, on how existence itself refuses to end. It’s more than music — it’s a testament to resilience, to loss, to the eternal return of the human spirit. No matter where the road leads, a part of us always finds its way back.
