I'm [Ab]
[F] a traveling man, left my mama crying with her head in [Bbm] her hands
Such a sad case, so [F] broken hearted
She said, Mama gotta go, gotta get out of here, gotta get out of town
Tryna hangin' [C] around, I got to roll on [F] between the dishes
Is this an ordinary story about the way things go around and around
Nobody [C] knows what the highway, goes [F] on forever
Said [C] the whole highway, goes [F] on forever
Lord, she never would have done it if she hadn't got drunk
If she hadn't started running with a traveling [Bb] man
If she hadn't started taking [C] those [F] crazy chances
Said, Daughter let me tell you about the traveling kind
Everywhere he's going, such a very short [Bb] time
He'll be long gone, [F] before you know it
[Bb] He'll be long gone, [F] before you know it

Really got in trouble, like a daughter gone mad
It's a [Gb] real fight, down in [C] Louisiana
[G] [F] Stranger better move it or you're gonna get killed
Gonna have to get another shot [Bb] gunned
When there ain't no time, [E] for a [F] lengthy speech
When [C] there [Bb] ain't no time, [Em] for a [F] lengthy speech
She [Dm] said, Never [G] have I known it [C] when it felt so [Gm] good

Round and around nobody knows
But the highway goes on forever
There ain't no way to stop the water.
