Got the blues in Batton Rouge walked a mile or two then caught her eye I got out in Memphis she smiled at me and slowly said goodbye She asked me if Id like to tag along a little farther down the line But travelin round and bein free thats only way lifes good to me Here I am in Memphis without a dime or a place to sleep Sure is hot and sweaty the tar is even bubbling on the street None of this bothered me thats the only cup otea that I can drink Cause travelin round and bein free thats only way lifes good to me I may move on in the morning and never know just how long Ill stay Sometimes Ill stay a month or two sometimes I dont even stay a day No one tried to tie me down and its quite a friendly town Ill stick around Cause travelin round and bein free thats only way lifes good to me Ive tried a lot of steady jobs but never seen one make me happy yet Ive lived my life so many ways tried everything and now I know whats best I wouldnt trade with anyone a billion dollars wouldnt move me none Cause travelin round and bein free thats only way lifes good to me Cause travelin round and bein free thats only way lifes good to me Cause travelin round and bein free thats only way lifes good to me
