[D] [G] [D]
This morning, if it all was gone Funny thing, wouldn't faze me none
Might feel like I just got home You know I always had a taste
To travel a little long I only get this one time around
Better speak up straight Better speak up proud
Good Lord, if he's not at home Well, I always had a taste
To travel a little long Oh, if I had a son
I would make him laugh I would teach him something
Say, son, you got a holy road And it's good to have a taste
To travel a little long Oh, if I had enough
[A] I [D] would say, man, got to keep up
Got to lay down, baby, feed my soul
Cause you know I got a taste To travel a little long
Oh, if I had a song I would sing it now
Wouldn't take too long Sing, goodness, it's a real bad one
[A] And it's [D] what you do When you're traveling alone
Down south, baby, in the heat I was raised up right
I was raised so sweet Sweetness ain't gonna get you home
Oh, you're bound to get a taste To travel a little long
[E] [D]
I know that the world is mean I know you don't care
I've been around, I've seen it It's like a pretty girl
Don't even know I guess everybody here
Is traveling alone Cigarettes and a pickup truck
I'm gonna leave this town now To press my gut
Oh, sin, gonna break so slow You know I always had a taste
To travel a little long
