TRAVELLIN' MAN

I was born a trav'lin' man, that's all I'll ever be
Movin' around from town to town, that's what makes me so free
My father was a trucker for the years of twenty-three,
on the day that I was born his truck was left to me

I'm the trav'lin' man,
trav'lin' man,
trav'lin' man,
trav'lin' man, that's what I am

Trav'lin' man, that's what I am, mama puts a load on me
You see me once or maybe twice, that's all you'll see of me
All you pretty women, Lord, I hope you'll understand,
don't be fallin' in love, just call in a trav'lin' man

I'm the trav'lin' man,
trav'lin' man,
trav'lin' man,
trav'lin' man, that's what I am

Trav'lin' man, that's what I am; guess I'll always be
Trav'lin' man, that's what I am but at in the least I'm free

Trav'lin' man, oh that's-a what I am

Trav'lin' man, that's what I am, Lord, I move so fast
I have had so many women, none of them have last
I am a steady mover, movin' fast as sound,
always be some time for always movin' around

I'm the trav'lin' man,
trav'lin' man,
trav'lin' man,
trav'lin' man, oh that's-a what I am

Trav'lin' man
