[00:00.00]James Taylor - My Traveling Star
[00:15.98]
[00:17.98]Watch my back and light my way
[00:22.62]My traveling star, my traveling star
[00:25.79]Watch over all of those born St. Christopher's Day
[00:31.20]Old road dog, young runaway
[00:34.87]They hunger for home but they cannot stay
[00:39.86]They wait by the door
[00:41.94]They stand and they stare
[00:45.60]They're already out of there
[00:49.72]They're already out of there
[00:52.06]
[00:52.98]My daddy used to ride the rails
[00:57.03]So they say, so they say
[01:00.71]Soft as smoke and as tough as nails
[01:05.74]Boxcar Jones, old walking man
[01:09.19]Coming back home was like going to jail
[01:14.08]The sheets and the blankets and babies and all
[01:19.45]No he never did come back home
[01:24.15]Never that I recall
[01:26.34]Nevermind the wind
[01:28.76]Nevermind the rain
[01:30.67]Nevermind the road leading home again
[01:34.98]Never asking why
[01:37.01]Never knowing when
[01:39.31]Every now and then
[01:41.45]There he goes again
[01:44.46]
[02:00.33]She had a cat and a dog named Blue
[02:05.15]My traveling star, my traveling star
[02:08.86]A big old stove and a fireplace, too
[02:13.58]Old road dog, young runaway
[02:17.40]She told me loved me like it was true
[02:22.32]I knew I should stay
[02:24.68]I knew I would go
[02:27.97]Run run run away
[02:32.30]Run run run away, boy
[02:35.03]Run before the wind
[02:36.89]Run before the rain
[02:39.19]Over yonder hill
[02:41.27]Just around the bend
[02:43.35]Never knowing why
[02:45.53]Never knowing when
[02:48.01]Every now and then
[02:49.86]There you go again
[02:52.04]Tie me up and hold me down
[02:56.32]Oh, my traveling star
[03:00.10]Bury my feet down in the ground
[03:04.58]Oh, old road dog
[03:08.74]Claim my name from the lost and found
[03:13.69]And let me believe this is where I belong
[03:19.44]Shame on me for sure
[03:23.54]For one more highway song
[03:26.49]
[03:30.66]My traveling star
[03:32.68]My traveling star
[03:35.85]
[03:43.74]
