Gotta Travel On
by Jimmy Dean
 
C
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
                    C7   F               C
Summer's almost gone yes winter's comin' on
                                                     
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
C7    F           G7           C
And I feel like I gotta travel on
 
 
Well papa writes to Johnny but Johnny can't come home
                       C7  F                C
Johnny can't come home no Johnny can't come home
 
Papa writes to Johnny but Johnny can't come home
C7         F           G7             C
Cause he's been on the chain gang too long
 
 
High sheriff and police ridin' after me 
                C7   F           C
Ridin' after me yes comin' after me
 
High sheriff and police they're comin' after me 
C7    F              G7           C
And I feel like I've gotta travel on
 
 
Well I wanna see my honey and I wanna see her bad
                  C7  F            C
Wanna see her bad oh wanna see her bad
 
I wanna see my honey wanna see her bad 
C7        F             G7            C
She's the best gal this poor boy ever had
 
repeat #1
