I've traveled cross the country, I've sung with lots of bands
I've played in those big cities that book those one-night stands
I'm lonely and I'm weary
I know the scene so well
The blues have come to get me and to drag me down to hell
But I keep traveling, what have I got to lose?
I keep traveling, unraveling all my blues
I check into a hotel and then forget its name
Guess I could ask, but oh well, aren't all hotels just the same?
Sink into the mattress, pray God my soul to keep
The blues are in the street, cries that haunt my troubled sleep
But I keep traveling, what have I got to lose?
I just keep on unraveling all my blues
ย
I wake up every morning, wonder where I'm at
I look into the mirror and ask myself, "Who's that?"
I've left behind a good man, a face I can't recall
And yet I love my old man or no man's been loved at all
But I keep on traveling, what have I got to lose?
Just keep a-traveling, unraveling all my blues
I know the blues confuse me, hold me in their trap
They lead me and they lose me while around my brain they
Wrap a web of lonely journeys, all spun from evil thread
That twists and turn and tangle me until my soul is dead
Woo, hoo, hoo
But I keep traveling, what have I got to lose?
I just keep traveling, trying to lose all my blues
ย
Woo
