Big Dreams for 'The Littlest Hobo': Fans push for star on Canada’s Walk of Fame

Big Dreams for 'The Littlest Hobo': Fans push for star on Canada’s Walk of Fame

When Terry Bush co-wrote and sang Maybe Tomorrow, the theme song for The Littlest Hobo, he thought it was just another gig—a catchy tune for a TV show about a wandering German Shepherd. Forty-five years later, that 'little tune' still tugs at heartstrings, pops up on playlists, and has even been known to be played at closing time in English pubs.

When Terry Bush co-wrote and sang Maybe Tomorrow, the theme song for The Littlest Hobo, he thought it was just another gig—a catchy tune for a TV show about a wandering German Shepherd. Forty-five years later, that "little tune" still tugs at heartstrings, pops up on playlists, and has even been known to be played at closing time in English pubs.

“I can’t believe the effect it’s had on people, and still does to this day,” said Bush, now 82. “It still humbles the heck out of me.”

CTV News caught up with Bush at his home in Ajax, Ont., where he sat at the piano and, for the first time in years, sang the lyrics beloved by millions:

"There’s a voice that keeps on calling me. Down the road, that’s where I’ll always be.”

Recently, fans and fellow musicians have been calling for Bush and The Littlest Hobo to be recognized with a star on Canada’s Walk of Fame. A change.org petition has gathered over 5,000 signatures and more are added every day.

“It’s an honour,” said Bush simply. “An honour.”

Back in the late 1970s, Bush was a successful jingle writer when a friend approached him about writing a theme song for CTV’s reboot of The Littlest Hobo, a character that originally appeared in a 1958 American film of the same name. The show followed a heroic dog helping people before always moving on to its next adventure.
