Viewing Lyrics for Traveling Man:
| | | Artist: | Dolly Parton |
| | Album: | Coat Of Many Colors | | Track: | Traveling Man | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 100 | | | | 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
