Traveling Man

John Brown's Body
Mmmmmm...
Traveling man
We've crossed lines
I shed a few words on my mind
He looked at me, "I've been singing a silly song"
Traveling man walked through the fools
Traveling man, traveling man.
Blessed the fools that dance over time
Well he did some time
I was there by his side
I was always on his mind.
Day and night he kept hearing my words
Don't bring the man back to the land.
Traveling man, traveling man.
Don't bring that man back to your clan.
Mmmmmm...
Tempe, Arizona: we meet again.
I saw the boots of a traveling man
Out on the street, it's a warm and dusty land
His eyes told the story of a wiser man.
Traveling man, traveling man.
Blessed are the fools that dance over time
Traveling man, traveling man.
Don't bring the man back to the clan.
Mmmmmm...
Ride on!
Ride on, ride on
Goes the traveling man.
Ride on!
Ride on!
Ride on.
You ride on.
