Life of a Travelin' Man

Album: Through the Window of a Train

Life of a Travelin' Man
(Shawn Lane/Cat Town Music, BMI)

Get the yard cut down and the babies fed
A million songs runnin' through my head
Daylight comes I'll be gone again
When does the highway ever end
My shoulders bare such a heavy load
Hard to keep my thoughts all in a row
I can't slow down the life I've chose
Somehow I love the way it goes
Time moves fast and the wheels turn slow
That's how the life of a travelin' man goes

The winds of change are a blowin' through
Just like they're always gonna do
They'll turn the page to another name
Different picture in the same ole frame
Lightning flashing up ahead
A million songs runnin' through my head
I can't name every place I've been
But if the Lord is willing I'll be there again
