Gotta Travel On

Ive laid around and played around this old town too long
Summers almost gone, winters comin on
Ive laid around and played around this old town too long
And I feel like Ive gotta travel on
High sheriff and police are ridin after me
Ridin after me, oh, theyre ridin after me
High sheriff and police are ridin after me
And I feel like Ive gotta travel on
Papa writes to Johnny, Johnny cant come home
No, Johnny cant come home, Johnny cant come home
Papa writes to Johnny but Johnny cant come home
Cause hes been on that chain gang too long
Gotta see my baby, gotta see her bad
Gotta see her bad, oh, I gotta see her bad
Gotta see my baby, gotta see her bad
Shes the best friend this poor boy ever had
Ive laid around and played around this old town too long
Summers almost gone, winters comin on
Ive laid around and played around this old town too long
And I feel like Ive gotta travel on
Oh, I feel like Ive gotta travel on
Oh, I feel like Ive gotta travel on
