Paths of Victory Songtext
von Bob Dylan

The trail is dark and dusty
The road is kinda rough
But the good road is awaiting
And boys, it ain′t far off

Trails of troubles
Roads of battles
Paths of victory
We shall walk

I walked down to the valley
I turned my head up high
I seen that silver linin'
That was hangin′ in the sky

Trails of troubles
Roads of battles
Paths of victory
We shall walk


The evenin' dusk was rollin'
I was walking down the track
There was a one-way wind blowin′
It was blowin′ at my back

Trails of troubles
Roads of battles
Paths of victory
We shall walk

The gravel road is bumpy
It's a hard road to ride
But the clear road′s up yonder
With the cinders on the side

Trails of troubles
Roads of battles
Paths of victory
We shall walk

The morning train was movin'
The hummin′ of its wheels
Told me of a new day
Comin' across the field


Trails of troubles
Roads of battles
Paths of victory
We shall walk
