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 [bad word] for the years of 23
 And on the day that I was born his [bad word] was left to me

I'm a travelin' man
 Travelin' man
 Travelin' man, that's what I am
 Travelin' man, oh 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
 No, all you pretty women Lord, I hope you understand
 Don't be a fool Lord no and put your heart in a travelin' man

I'm a travelin' man
 Travelin' man
 Travelin' man, that's what I am
 Travelin' man

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, yeah

I'm a traveler
 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
 Travelin' man, oh that's what I am

Travelin' man
