Lyrics
Old man moon, shining in my rearview
Leaving that Tennessee town
You're all I have to talk to
Don't know where my dog ran off to
But he's gone, and has been for a while now
Where I'm bound, well, I haven't figured it out
I'm sure I'll find my usual old wrong way
The cost to leave ain't cheap, I don't need no eat or sleep
Even if I did, I lost my job, so I don't got much pay, but it's okay
'Cause anymore would burn a hole in my pocket
Lord, I can't afford to be a poor boy broke
Besides this pair of jeans is already threaded, tearin' at the seams
The last thing that I need is a pant leg full of smoke
Gonna ride until my ride quits riding
Then I'm gonna walk until my boots walk off
Yessir, I'll be a sight when I get
Where they're looking mean and lying
But tonight, I'm feeling free and friendly
Barely scraping change, waving goodbye
Say, old man moon, I hear that you get blue too
It must be lonesome way up in the sky
The stars seem mighty proud, if I were you, I'd hate a cloud
All they ever do is hang around and cry
Guess it ain't a shame to be rolling like a slow train
Or glowing like only you do, I'll tell you what
I'll keep right on track, if you keep shining bright like that
I bet before we know it, this journey will be through
And the hard times too, man
Anymore would burn a hole in my pocket
Lord, I can't afford to be a poor boy broke
Besides this pair of jeans is already threaded, tearin' at the seams
The last thing that I need is a pant leg full of smoke
Gonna ride until my ride quits riding
Then I'm gonna walk until my boots walk off
Yes sir, I'll be a sight when I get
Where they're looking mean and lying
But tonight, I'm feeling free and friendly
Barely scraping change, waving goodbye
Wavin' goodbye, wavin' goodbye
