Lyrics

I was born under a wanderin' star
I was born under a wanderin' star
Wheels are made for rollin', mules are made to pack
I've never seen a sight that didn't look better lookin' back
I was born under a wanderin' star
Mud can make you prisoner and the plains can bake you dry
Snow can burn your eyes but only people make you cry
Home is made for comin' from, for dreams of goin' to
Which with any luck will never come true
I was born under a wanderin' star
I was born under a wanderin' star
Do I know where hell is? Hell is in "hello"
Heaven is goodbye forever, it's time for me to go
I was born under a wanderin' star
A wanderin', wanderin' star
Mud can make you prisoner and the plains can bake you dry
Snow can burn your eyes but only people make you cry
Home is made for comin' from, for dreams of goin' to
Which with any luck will never come true
I was born under a wanderin' star
I was born under a wanderin' star
When I get to heaven, tie me to a tree
Or I'll begin to roam and soon you'll know where I will be
I was born under a wanderin' star
A wanderin', wanderin' star
