Ringtone: Send Gotta Travel On Ringtone to your Cell Phone!

(Paul Clayton)

I laid around and I played around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone, yes, the winter's comin' on
I laid around and I played around this old town too long
And I feel like I've gotta travel on.

Well, 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.

Yeah, I laid around and I played around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone, yes, the winter's comin' on
I laid around and I played around this old town too long
And I feel like I've gotta travel on.

Well, the high sheriff and police comin' after me
Comin' after me, yes, a ridin' after me
The high sheriff and police comin' after me
And I feel like I gotta travel on.

Yeah, I laid around and I played around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone, yes, the winter's comin' on
I laid around and I played around this old town too long
And I feel like I've gotta travel on.

--- Instrumental ---

I wanna see my baby, wanna see him bad
Wanna see him bad, yes, I gotta see him bad
I wanna see my honey, I wanna see him bad
He's the best man this poor girl ever had.

Well, I laid around and I played around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone, yes, the winter's comin' on
I laid around and I played around this old town too long
And I feel like I've gotta travel on.

And I feel like I gotta travel on...
