Some people say I'm a no count, others say I'm no good,

But I'm just a natural born travelin man,

And I don't give a damn about a greenback dollar,

Spend it fast as I can,
C      G      C           G          C
For a wailin song, and a good guitar,
      D                           Em
The only thing thatas I understand, Poor boy,
      D                         Em
The only thing that I understand.


When I was a little babe, my mama said hey son,

Travel where you will, and grow to be a man,

And sing what must be sung, poor boy,

Sing what must be sung.

chorus

Now that I'm a grown man, I've travelled here and there,

I've learned that a bottle of brandy and a song,

The only ones who ever cared, poor boy,

The only ones who ever cared
