Lyrics

VERSE:
I left my home in West Virginia
And I set out on the road
And all these years I have continued
For no reason that I know

CHORUS:
A southern star in a northern sky
I'm shining all alone
A southern star in a northern sky
And so far from my home

VERSE:
I can recall my happy childhood
Friends that knew me by name
And all those paths
through all those wild woods
The blue of that blue mountain range

CHORUS

VERSE:
So when I die if you remember
And if my pockets are not bare
There is one service you can render
Put me on a train back there

CHORUS

Karl Williams
