Gotta Travel On Billy Grammer

GOTTA TRAVEL ON

Recorded by Billy Grammer

Words and music by Paul Clayton

I've [D] laid around and played around this old town too long

Summer's almost gone; [D7] Yes, [G] winter's comin' [D] on

I've laid around and played around this old town too long [D7]

And I [G] feel like I've [A7] gotta travel [D] 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; Ridin' after me

Ridin' after me; Yes, comin' after me

High sheriff and police ridin' after me

And I feel like I've gotta travel on.

Want to see my honey; Want to see her bad

Want to see her bad; Oh! want to see her bad

Want to see my honey; Want to see her bad

She's the best gal this poor boy ever had.
