Gotta Travel On
recorded by Jimmy Dean
written by Paul Clayton
 
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
