I'm just a traveling man, you see
Wherever this road goes is where I will be
And I'll catch me a ride on a boat to Spain
Tell a woman that I love her then forget her name
And I wish I could stay for midday coffee
But I just can't get this dreamin' off me
If I could find me a place to rest my mind
Well, mama always said you'll get there in good time

There's some headlights burning down the highway
And I think that I may hitch me a ride
I'm a traveling man by trade, sir
We're all runnin' from the things inside

There's a train headin' West to South Toledo
If the dogs don't sell me asleep I'll go
Dreamin' as I'm steamin' past miles of ground
Through the souls and hymnals that built these towns
I won't stay too long and leave too soon
The best time for goin' is when the goin' scare you

There's some headlights burning down the highway
And I think that I may hitch me a ride
'Cause I'm a traveling man by trade, sir
We're all runnin' from the things inside

There's some headlights burnin' down the highway
And I think that I may just hitch me a ride
'Cause I'm a traveling man by trade, sir
We're all running from the things inside

(My harmonica holder grabbed my beard)
(The entire time I was singin' that, it like ripped my whole, uh)
(Alright, yeah, yeah)
(Sorry, guys, how's everyone doin'?)
