[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

Robert Clark “Bob” Seger (born May 6, 1945) is an American singer-songwriter, guitarist and pianist. As a locally successful Detroit-area artist, he performed and recorded as Bob Seger and the Last Heard and Bob Seger System throughout the 1960s. By the early 1970s, he had dropped the “System” from his recordings and continued to strive for broader success with various other bands. In 1973, he put together the Silver Bullet Band, with a group of Detroit-area musicians, with whom he became most successful on the national level with the album Live Bullet, recorded live with the Silver Bullet Band in 1975 at Cobo Hall in Detroit, Michigan. On his studio albums, he also worked extensively with the Alabama-based Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section, which appeared on several of Seger’s best-selling singles and albums.

In 1976, he achieved a national breakout with the studio album Night Moves. The Night Moves title track became his first Billboard Top 5 single and the album started a string six consecutive albums landing in the Billbaord Top 10. The 1980 album, Against the Wind, topped the charts.
