Watch my back and light my way my traveling star, my traveling star
Watch over all of those born St Christopher's Day old road dog, young runaway
They hunger for home but they cannot stay
they wait by the door, they stand and they stare
They're already out of there, they're already out of there
My daddy used to ride the rails so they say, so they say
Soft as smoke and as tough as nails Boxcar Jones, old walking man
Coming back home was like going to jail
The sheets and the blankets and babies and all
no, he never did come back home, never that I recall
Never mind the wind, never mind the rain, never mind the road leading home again
Never asking why, never knowing when, every now and then, there he goes again
She had a cat and a dog named Blue my traveling star, my traveling star
A big old stove and a fireplace, too old road dog, young runaway
She told me loved me like it was true
I knew I should stay, I knew I would go
Run, run, run away Run, run, run away, boy
Run before the wind, run before the rain, over yonder hill, just around the bend
Never knowing why, never knowing when, every now and then, there you go again
Tie me up and hold me down oh, my traveling star
Bury my feet down in the ground oh, old road dog
Claim my name from the lost and found and let me believe this is where I belong
Shame on me for sure for one more highway song
My traveling star, my traveling star
