(leon wilkeson -- ronnie vanzant)



I was born a travelin' man, that's all i'll ever be

Moving around from town to town is what makes me so free

My father was a trucker for the years of '23

On the day that i was born his blood was left to me

I'm a travelin' man

Travelin' man -- that's what i am

Travelin' man

Travelin' man

That's what i am



Travelin' man -- that's what i am

No woman puts a hold on me

You'll see me once or maybe twice

That's all you'll see of me

All you pretty women lord, i hope you understand

Don't be a fool lord no, and put your heart in a travellin' man

I'm a travelin' man

Travelin' man

Travelin' man -- that's what i am

Travelin' man



(bridge)

Travelin' man -- that's what i am

Guess i'll always be

Travelin' man -- that's what i am

But at least i'm free



Travelin' man

Oh - that's what i am



Travelin' man -- that's what i am, lord i move so fast

I have had so many women, none of them have last

I am just a mover, moving fast as sound

Always free, sometimes lonely. always movin' around

Travelin' man

Travelin' man -- that's what i am

Travelin' man

Oh - that's what i am
