I'm following the stars,
F C
thru the tumbleweeds and clover
C
I'm following the stars,
D7 G
and my pinto follows me

'cause I was born a rover

I love the bellows of the buffalo

in Custer South Dakota

And the melodies of the people

of Teton Sioux Lakota

Where the whippoorwills go

when the trade-winds blow
G C
is a life that's more exciting

Where there ain't no roads

and anything goes

is where you'll find me riding

In the nighttime, the moon so bright
G G7 C C7
I lay my swag down for the night
F C
And the coyotes, sing their high notes
G G7 C C7
They oblige me sweet lullabies
F
When the beans are ready

and my boots are sweaty

I remember my sweet home

I left my lady and child

all so I can bring home the gold

The highway men, came up and said
F C
Sir the line's a-calling

We need more men, to shoot them dead

'said no siree, just let me be

for I'm a solo rider

My bride-to-be in Tennessee
