Travelin` Man Lyrics

Travelin` Man

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-travelin' man my friend.

I've got to travel across this land.

Cause I'm a, a-travelin' 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-headin' 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 headin' on out again. 



Cause I'm a, a-travelin' man my friend.

I've got to travel across this land.

Cause I'm a, a-travelin' man my friend,

Lord keep a-travelin' on. 



Break 



Well tomorrow is coming,

And I'll be on the road again.

A-pushin' and huffin'

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-travelin' on. 



Cause I'm a, a-travelin' man my friend.

I've got to travel across this land.

Cause I'm a, a-travelin' man my friend.

A-Lord can't you see I got to keep on,

Travelin' on.

Lord keep travelin' on.
