Lyrics

TRAVELING MAN

Roads they run crooked
Fence posts run straight
Cold as a coffin
The hours calm as fate
Ghosts ride the desert
Clear of headlights
Hidden in high wires
I can hear their goodbyes

Ch Oh I’m a travelin’ man
Wolf at my back, wind in my hand
Oh I’m a travelin’ man
Damned if I do, damned if I can’t

If I had a dollar
For the miles that I’ve seen
I’d buy you a fortress
And make you my queen
We’d drink tequila
Hold back the sunrise
The sky would grow restless
And wild in your eyes

Ch Oh I’m a travelin’ man
Wolf at my back, wind in my hand
Oh I’m a travelin’ man
Damned if I do, damned if I can’t


When I held your favor
You’d sing to the moon
You’d dance until midnight
In some hotel room
The wind it would whisper
And call out your name
I’d follow your footsteps
Till you turned to rain

Ch Oh I’m a travelin’ man
Wolf at my back, wind in my hand
Oh I’m a travelin’ man
Damned if I do, damned if I can’t (2x)
