They copied all they could follow but they couldn't copy my mind so I left them sweating and stealing a year and a half behind
They shut the road through the woods Seventy years ago. Weather and rain have undone it again, And now you would never know There was once a road through the woods
They copied all they could copy, But they couldn't copy my mind; And I left them sweatin' and stealin', A year and a half behind.
