[Verse 1]
Up with the sun, gone with the wind
She always said I was lazy
Leaving my home, leaving my friends
Running when things get too crazy
Out to the road, out 'neath the stars
Feeling the breeze, passin' the cars
[Verse 2]
Women have come, women have gone
Everyone trying to cage me, yeah
Some were so sweet, I barely got free
Others, they only enraged me
Sometimes at night, I see their faces
I feel the traces they've left on my soul
And those are the memories that made me a wealthy soul
I tell you, those are the memories that made me a wealthy soul
[Chorus]
Travelin' man, love when I can
Turn loose my hand 'cause I'm goin'
Travelin' man, love when I can
But sooner or later I'm goin' on
Travelin' man
Travelin' man
[Verse 3]
Sometimes at night, I see their faces
I feel the traces they've left on my soul
And those are the memories that made me a wealthy soul
Tell you, those are the memories that made me a wealthy soul
[Bridge]
Yeah
Travelin' man, yeah
Come on now, ah yeah
Got to keep on movin'
Keep right on movin', hey
Oh yeah
Up with the sun, gone with the wind
She always said I was lazy
Leaving my home, leaving my friends
Running when things get too crazy
Out to the road, out 'neath the stars
Feeling the breeze, passin' the cars
[Verse 2]
Women have come, women have gone
Everyone trying to cage me, yeah
Some were so sweet, I barely got free
Others, they only enraged me
Sometimes at night, I see their faces
I feel the traces they've left on my soul
And those are the memories that made me a wealthy soul
I tell you, those are the memories that made me a wealthy soul
[Chorus]
Travelin' man, love when I can
Turn loose my hand 'cause I'm goin'
Travelin' man, love when I can
But sooner or later I'm goin' on
Travelin' man
Travelin' man
[Verse 3]
Sometimes at night, I see their faces
I feel the traces they've left on my soul
And those are the memories that made me a wealthy soul
Tell you, those are the memories that made me a wealthy soul
[Bridge]
Yeah
Travelin' man, yeah
Come on now, ah yeah
Got to keep on movin'
Keep right on movin', hey
Oh yeah
