Travelin' Man
Composer(s): Tom Johnston
Performer(s): The Doobie Brothers



The sun brings up another day 
near the little fishin' town
The nets are hung out in the wind
The sails are down
A seagull flies above my head
spinning slowly toward the sea
He seems so free, and just like me he rides the wind

I'm a trav-'lin' man 
Nothin' left behind me but the road
I'm a trav-'lin' man 
Won't you share the load? 

Lonesome shepherd in the field ahead
Moonlight flows across the grass 
The rocky hills catch the light 
above their shadows cast
Lonely by the day, drifting late at night 
The wind is creepin' through my ragged coat 
What a life! 

I'm a trav-'lin' man 
Nothin' left behind me but the road
I'm a trav-'lin' man 
Won't you share the load?  

I'm a trav-'lin' man 
Nothin' left behind me but the road
I'm a trav-'lin' man 
Won't you share the load? 

I'm a trav-'lin' man 
Nothin' left behind me but the road
I'm a trav-'lin' man 
Won't you share the load?
