Starlight On The Rails

Starlight On The Rails

Utah Phillips

I can hear the whistle blowin’
High and lonesome as can be
Outside the rain is softly fallin’
Tonight it’s fallin’ just for me

Looking back along the road I’ve traveled
All the miles could tell a million tales
Each year is like some rolling freight train
And cold as starlight on the rails

I think about wife and family
A home and all the things it means
The black smoke trailin’ out behind me
Is like a string of broken dreams

Looking back along the road I’ve traveled
All the miles could tell a million tales
Each year is like some rolling freight train
And cold as starlight on the rails

A man who lives out on the highway
Is like a clock that can’t tell time
A man who spends his life just rambling
Is like a song without a rhyme

Looking back along the road I’ve traveled
All the miles could tell a million tales
Each year is like some rolling freight train
And cold as starlight on the rails
