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

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

My father was a trucker for the years since '23

On the day that I was born his blood was left for me

I'm a travellin' man

Travellin' Man -- that's what I am

Travellin' Man

Travellin' Man

That's what I am

Travellin' man -- that's what I am

No one 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 and fall in love with a travellin' man

I'm a travellin' man

Travellin' Man -- that's what I am

Travellin' Man

Travellin' Man

That's what I am

Travellin' man -- that's what I am

But at least I'm free

Travellin' man

Oh that's what I am

Travellin man -- that's what I am, Lord I move so fast

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

Travellin' Man -- that's what I am

Travellin' Man

Travellin' Man
