Travelin' - Merle Haggard, The Strangers

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

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

Yyou 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
