Travelin' Man

(альбом: Special Delivery - 1978)

A-don't you know that I'm leaving
I gotta catch the next train out.
I can't believe it.
Cause I'm a-already on my own.
A-Memphis town is the place I'm found.
There ain't no use in a-sticking around.
I got my pack on my back my friends,
And I'm heading on out again.

Cause I'm a, a-traveling man my friend.
I've got to travel across this land.
Cause I'm a, a-traveling man my friend.
A-Lord I'm on the move.

I told you girl I ain't staying tonight.
I got to leave while the getting is right.
I got the places to see, people to meet,
And I'm a-heading on down the street.

A-when I get to old New York town,
A-pretty ladies there to show me around.
I'll take my money, all I can spend,
And I'm heading on out again.

Cause I'm a, a-traveling man my friend.
I've got to travel across this land.
Cause I'm a, a-traveling man my friend,
Lord keep a-traveling on.

[Break]

Well tomorrow is coming,
And I'll be on the road again.
A-pushing and huffing
While trying to get ahead.
I think I'm getting ready and hot.
I know it's time for a-me to stop.
I need to back another whiskey shot,
Lord, keep a-traveling on.

Cause I'm a, a-traveling man my friend.
I've got to travel across this land.
Cause I'm a, a-traveling man my friend.
A-Lord can't you see I got to keep on,
Traveling on.
Lord keep traveling on.
