Traveling Shoes Songtext

von Robert Randolph & The Family Band

We walk this road,
We're on own way
But when we get there
No one can say
No one can say
No one can say

Death comes ridin' by the liar's door
Said "Old liar, are you ready to go?"
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Because I ain't got on my travelin' shoes,
And I ain't ready - sayin'-
No, no, no
Oh Lordy, no, no, no
Because I ain't got on my travelin' shoes"

Death comes ridin' by the dancer's door
Said "Old dancer, are you ready to go?"
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Because I ain't got on my travelin' shoes,
And I ain't ready - sayin'-
No, no, no
Oh Lordy, no, no, no
Because I ain't got on my travelin' shoes"

We walk this road,
We're on own way
But when we get there
No one can say
No one can say
No one can say

Death comes ridin' by the dealer's door
Said "Old dealer, are you ready to go?"
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Because I ain't got on my travelin' shoes,
And I ain't ready - sayin'-
No, no, no
Oh Lordy, no, no, no
Because I ain't got on my travelin' shoes"

Death comes ridin' by the banker's door
Said "Old banker, are you ready to go?"
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Because I ain't got on my travelin' shoes,
And I ain't ready - sayin'-
No, no, no
Oh Lordy, no, no, no
Because I ain't got on my travelin' shoes"
