11. WEARY TRAVELER

WEARY TRAVELER

Weary traveller,
looking for a meal and a bed,
I’ll pay you good money
for a place to lay my head.

Tired and hungry,
easily lost and confused
and a weary traveller
is often cheated and abused.

I ain’t going on the bum,
and I ain’t going on the run,
I’m just going cause I gotta keep goin
and I’m lookin for a little fun,
Weary traveller,
looking for a meal and a bed,
I’d pay you good money
For a place to lay my head.

Weary traveller,
I won’t be here for very long.
I won’t wear out my welcome,
when you wake up I’ll be gone.

I moved around a lot when I was young,
Probly keep movin when I’m old,
and if I every make it up to heaven, good people,
I’ll be shwoopin down the streets of gold,
Weary traveller,
lookin’ for a meal and a bed,
I’ll pay you good money
for a place to lay my head.
