Travelin' Man Lyrics

I was driftin' through nothin'
Planes, trains, and the back of this bus
I was searchin' for somethin'
Not sure who or what it was

Sometimes I get lonely
But no tears are leavin' these eyes
I keep on a rollin'
To another life and another time

Got my Aviators and my cigarette lighter
My leather jacket, I'm a jet fighter
Like a long-haired hippie, think '77
I'm a bat outta hell, just a searchin' for Heaven
They gonna say I'm out of hand
Some people can't stand
A travelin' man, alright

She was kissin' on me
Sayin' oh now I think I'm in love
I said thank you, believe me
But I think that you've had enough

Sometimes I get lonely
But no tears are leavin' these eyes
I keep on a rollin'
To another life and another time

Got my Aviators and my cigarette lighter
My leather jacket, I'm a jet fighter
Like a long-haired hippie, think '77
I'm a bat outta hell, just a searchin' for Heaven
They gonna say I'm out of hand
Some people can't stand
A travelin' man, alright
Got my Aviators and my cigarette lighter
My leather jacket, I'm a jet fighter
Like a long-haired hippie, think '77
I'm a bat outta hell, just a searchin' for Heaven
They gonna say I'm out of hand
Some people can't stand
A travelin' man, alright
Alright, alright, oh

Got my Aviators and my cigarette lighter
My leather jacket, I'm a jet fighter
Like a long-haired hippie, think '77
I'm a bat outta hell, just a searchin' for Heaven
They gonna say I'm out of hand
Some people can't stand
A travelin' man, alright
