Gotta Travel On

I've laid around and played around

This old town too long

Summer's almost gone

Yes winter's coming on

I've laid around and played around

This old town too long

And I feel like

I've gotta travel on

Papa writes to Johnny

But Johnny can't come home

Johnny can't come home

No Johnny can't come home

Papa writes to Johnny

But Johnny can't come home

Cause he's been on

The chain gang too long

High sheriff and police

Riding after me

Riding after me

Yes coming after me

High sheriff and police

Riding after me

And I feel like

I've gotta travel on

Wanna see my honey

Wanna see her bad

Wanna see her bad

Oh wanna see her bad

Wanna see my honey

Wanna see her bad

She's the best girl

This poor boy ever had
