(leon wilkeson — ronnie vanzant)
I was born a travellin’ man, that’s all i’ll ever be
Moving around from town to town its what makes me so free
My father was a trucker for the years since ’23
On the day that i was born his blood was left for me
I’m a travellin’ man
Travellin’ man — that’s what i am
Travellin’ man
Travellin’ man
That’s what i am
Travellin’ man — that’s what i am
No one puts a hold on me
You’ll see me once or maybe twice
That’s all you’ll see of me
All you pretty women lord, i hope you understand
Don’t be a fool and fall in love with a travellin’ man
I’m a travellin’ man
Travellin’ man — that’s what i am
Travellin’ man
Travellin’ man
That’s what i am
Travellin’ man — that’s what i am
But at least i’m free
Travellin’ man
Oh that’s what i am
Travellin man — that’s what i am, lord i move so fast
I have had so many women, none of them have lasted
—
—
Travellin’ man — that’s what i am
Travellin’ man
Travellin’ man
