Some people say I'm a no 'count.
Others say I'm no good.
But I'm just a nat'ral-born travelin' man,
doin' what I think I should,
O, yeah. Doin' what I think I should.
 [bad word] ]
And I don't give a [bad word] about a greenback dollar,
spend it as fast as I can.
For a wailin' song and a good guitar,
the only things that I understand, poor boy,
the only things that I understand.

When I was a little baby,
my momma said, "Hey, son.
Travel where you will and grow to be a man
And sing what must be sung, poor boy.
Sing what must be sung."
 [bad word] 
Now that I'm a grown man,
I've traveled here and there.
I've learned that a bottle of brandy and a song,
The only ones who ever care, poor boy,
the only ones who ever care.
