Every man has a black star, a black star over his shoulder
And when a man sees his black star, he knows his time, his time has come
Black star, don't shine on me, black star, black star, keep behind me, black star
There's a lot of livin' I gotta do, give me time to make a few tunes come true
Black star
And when I ride, I feel that black star, that black star over my shoulder
So I ride, in front of that black star, never lookin' around, never lookin' around
Black star, don't shine on me, black star, black star, keep behind me, black star
There's a whole lot of livin' I gotta do, give me time to make a few tunes come true
Black star
One fine day, I'll see that black star, that black star over my shoulder
And when I see that old black star, I'll know my time, my time has come
Black star, don't shine on me, black star, black star, keep behind me, black star
There's a whole lot of livin' I gotta do, give me time to make a few tunes come true
Black star
Black star
Don't shine on me, black star, black star, don't shine on me, black star, black star, black star, keep behind me, black star
There's a whole lot of livin' I gotta do, give me time to make a few tunes come true
Black star
Black star
Black star
Bye.
