Travelin' Blues Songtext

von Jimmie Rodgers

I had a dream last night
I thought my good gal had gone
I woke up this morning
She had really done me wrong
I know it's not fair
But my good gal has done caught air

My gal's been trifflin round
Just about a week I know
Several of my friends
Just told me so and so
She's found a new man
And now I can understand

I'm going away, leaving today
I'm gonna bring my baby back
If that eight-wheel driver
Don't jump the railroad track
I'll take her from that man
I'm gonna bring her home if I can

Yodel

It's true my baby's gone
I know it won't be long
We'll both be on that train
My baby's coming home again
She's been trifflin' round
But now she's throwed him down
