Dolly Parton - Traveling Man lyrics
The man i loved ran a salesman route Selling goods from house to house Now i knew my mama would never stand For me stepping out with no traveling man Mama bought things that he was a'selling But mama didn't know and i sure wasn't telling That behind her back i was making plans To meet somewhere with that traveling man Oh the traveling man was a good bit older But a girl needs arms to hold her Mama didn't know 'cause i didn't told her But mama wouldn't understand Me stepping out with a traveling man Mama didn't allow me a'going courting And i'd tell lies that i reckon i oughtn't Oh but she'd a'give me the back a' her hand If she'd a'seen me with that traveling man So i tell my mama that i reckon i oughta Go to the spring and fetch us some water What mama didn't know is i had a plan To meet down there with that traveling man Now i make plans to run away With that traveling man on a saturday Well saturday's here and here i stand And there goes my mama with that traveling man Oh that traveling man was a two-time lover He took my love then he took my mother But i didn't know 'cause mama didn't told me and i don't understand My mama running off with my traveling man Mama, you know you oughtn't a'done that You just like my daddy He run off before i ever knowed him You done run-off with my traveling man And i really don't think i ever knowed you either Oh there goes my mama with my traveling man And i'm really gonna miss that traveling man Mm-hm |
