As long as i'm traveling

I can't afford a ticket so when I get ready to go
I just wait by the railroad track for freight that's moving slow
Rest my head on a boxcar floor hear the whistle whine
It's the only life I ever known that suits me fine

As long as I'm traveling going somewhere
As long as I'm traveling I don't ever care

Never have to pay no rent or wonder how I eat
I just look for a kindly soul then stop him on the street
The conversation that I offered him is usually worth a dime
And that could get my on my way and that suits me fine

As long as I'm traveling going somewhere
As long as I'm traveling I don't ever care
As long as I'm traveling I don't ever care
