Travelin'

Merle Haggard · Hag-The Studio Recordings 1969-1976 [2007]

(Ronnie Reno - Tiny Moore)



I know we know

I won't be here for long

A travelin' man will do what he can

Till he hears that travelin' song.



Born in a little town

I left home around bout the age of nine

Been everywhere a time or two

Doin' what I wanna do leavin' little girls behind.



I know we know

I won't be here for long

A travelin' man will do what he can

Till he hears that travelin' song.



--- Instrumental ---



If you see me twice take my advice

And don't play me no tune

When I hear my song it won't be long

I'll be leavin' soon.



I know we know

I won't be here for long

A travelin' man will do what he can

Till he hears that travelin' song.



As I travel along I sing my songs

I'm happy as can be

I'm free as a bird you can take my word

Travelin's a life for me.



I know we know

I won't be here for long

A travelin' man will do what he can

Till he hears that travelin' song.



I know we know

I won't be here for long

A travelin' man will do what he can

Till he hears that travelin' song...
