[Em]
Some people [G] say I'm a no count, [Em]
others say [G] I'm no good
[Em] I'm just a natural [C] born traveling [D] man
I'm doing what I think I [Em] should, uh-huh
[D] Doing what I think I [E] should
[G] And I don't [C] give a [G] hang how to [C] green that [G] dollar
I spend [C] it fast [G] as a king, [C] all right
[G] Oh, any [C] song [G] and a good [C] guitar
[D] Are the only things I [Em] understand, boy
[D] Only things I [Em] understand
When I was [G] a little baby
[Em] My mama told [G] me, son
[Em] Travel you real and [C] grow to be a man
[D] Sing when you must be [Em] some, boy, [D] boy
Sing when you must [Em] be some
And [G] I don't [C] give a [G] damn how to green that dollar
I [C] spend it [G] fast as a king, [C] all right
[G] Oh, any [C] song [G] and a good [C] guitar
[D] Are the only things I [Em] understand, uh-huh
[D] Only things I [Em] understand
Now that I [G] am a grown man
[Em] Travel here [G] and there
[Em] I've learned it by the [C] brain in a song
[D] I'm the only one who still ever [Em] care, uh-huh
[D] Only one who [Em] still ever care
And [G] I don't [C] give a [G] hang how to green that dollar
I [C] spend it fast as [G] a king, [C] all right
[G] Oh, any [C] song [G] and a good [C] guitar
[D] Are the only things I [Em] understand, boy
[D] Only things I [Em] understand
Some people say [G] I'm a no count
[Em] Others say [G] I'm no good
[Em] I'm just a [C] natural born travelin' man
[D] But you've been what I think [Em] I should, uh [D]-huh
You've been what I think [Em] I should
I [G]
don't give [C] a [G] hang how to green [C] that [G] dollar
I spend [C] it [G] fast as a king, all right
Oh, any [C] [G] song and a good [C] guitar
[D] Are the only things I [Em] understand, boy, boy
[D]
Only things I [Em] understand
[D] Only things I [Em] understand
[D] Only things [Em] I understand
