Years have passed him by
He used to wonder why in the early days
Worked his fingers to the bone
Content with all he owned
Yet his fortunes did change
The past it came to find him
For his words they left a trail
Though romance tried to claim him
His poetry prevailed
He's just a lone voice
Singing out into the wilderness
Laid bare for the Universe to digest
Rodriguez
Six stone Rodriguez
He's just your everyday prophet
Speaking in tongues you cannot hear
His wisdom's wrapped in songs that echo
Deep down in your ears
His name is unfamiliar
Yet he speaks straight to your soul
To you he is a stranger
Yet his voice feels like home
He's just a lone voice
Singing out into the wilderness
Hear him calling when all is put to rest
Rodriguez
Six stone Rodriguez
He's not a saint nor a sinner
He just seems to understand
A voice of the people
Singing about a sugarman
The legacy he leaves
Is one of blood, sweat, and tears
You know a song can live forever
In the hearts of those who hear
He's just a lone voice
Singing out into the wilderness
Traveling on with no fixed address
Rodriguez
Six stone Rodriguez
