I expected that when I clicked on "Lyrics" and then the title of this song that I would see the lyrics, presumably as the author intended them. I did not. They're all intelligible, save for one line near the end: "May no man's reigns ever chain you, and may no man's (weight?) ever (????) your (soul?), and as for the clouds, just let them roll, roll away, roll away, and as for the clouds, just let them roll, roll, roll away."
That line I'm missing sounds like "And may no man's weight ever lay freight your soul," but that's not an expression I've ever heard, and while I understand artistic license and expression, it still doesn't sit right somehow. Perhaps I should look at the published sheet music.
