Artist/Band: Jimmy Dean
Lyrics for Song: Gotta Travel On
Lyrics for Album: Big Dad John [1993]



(Paul Clayton)



I've laid around and played around this old town too long

Summer's almost gone, yes, winter's comin' on

I've laid around and played around this old town too long

And I feel like I gotta travel on.



Well, papa writes to Johnny but Johnny can't come home

Johnny can't come home, no Johnny can't come home

Papa writes to Johnny but Johnny can't come home

'Cause he's been on the chain gang too long.



High sheriff and police ridin' after me

Ridin' after me, yes comin' after me

High sheriff and police they're comin' after me

And I feel like I've gotta travel on.



I've laid around and played around this old town too long

Summer's almost gone, yes, winter's comin' on

I've laid around and played around this old town too long

And I feel like I gotta travel on.



Well, I wanna see my honey and I wanna see her bad

Wanna see her bad, oh, wanna see her bad

I wanna see my honey, wanna see her bad

She's the best gal this poor boy ever had.



I've laid around and played around this old town too long

Summer's almost gone, yes, winter's comin' on

I've laid around and played around this old town too long

And I feel like I gotta travel on.



Travel on, travel on, travel on...
