Lyrics Johnny Cash

Johnny Cash

Sing A Travelin' Song

Hey little girl, with tears in your eyes

Don't waste your time now, askin' me why

I don't know, I know I'll just be movin' along

You'd say that home is where my love is at

I say that home is where I hang my hat

The time has come to sing a travelin' song

You own a house and a lot of close friends

I love the feel of my back to the wind

The two won't match, you know the caves so wild would be wrong

You want your friends and love, a child and a home

You can't buy love on a twenty year loan

The time has come to sing a travelin' song

Someday where we sat on that old porch swing

A tamer man might offer you a ring

A man that wants his friends and neighbors, a child and a home

Don't waste your tears on dreams that never can be

What's right for others is not right for me

The time has come to sing a travelin' song

The time has come to sing a travelin' song
