[Verse 1]
Every man has a flaming star
A flaming star over his shoulder
And when a man sees his flaming star
He knows his time, his time has come

[Chorus]
Flaming star, don't shine on me, flaming star
Flaming star, keep behind me, flaming star
There's a lot of living I've gotta do
Give me time to make a few dreams come true
Flaming star (flaming star)

[Verse 2]
When I ride, I feel that flaming star
That flaming star over my shoulder
And so I ride front of that flaming star
Never looking around, never looking around

[Chorus]
Flaming star, don't shine on me, flaming star
Flaming star, keep behind me, flaming star
There's a lot of living I've gotta do
Give me time to make a few dreams come true
Flaming star (flaming star)
[Verse 3]
One fine day, I'll see that flaming star
That flaming star over my shoulder
And when I see that old flaming star
I'll know my time, my time has come

[Chorus]
Flaming star, don't shine on me, flaming star
Flaming star, keep behind me, flaming star
There's a lot of living I've gotta do
Give me time to make a few dreams come true
Flaming star
