Traveling Blues

I've been travelin', traveling from place to place
Honey, I've been travelin', traveling from place to place
I ain't never been to Chicago, they tell me that's a great big place

And the brown I love, done caught the train and gone
And the brown I love, done caught the train and gone
And she left me here, singin', honey, this lonesome song

I didn't feel like cryin', 'til, honey, she got on the train
I didn't feel like cryin', honey, she got on the train
Then my heart struck sorrow, tears fell just like drops of rain

Wasn't for good corn whiskey, 'believe I'd lose my mind
Wasn't for good corn whiskey, 'believe, hon', I'd lose my mind
For the brown I'm lovin', she worries and bothers me all the time

I'm so worried and bothered, I don't know what to do
I'm so worried and bothered, and I don't know what to do
I just reach over in the corner and pick up my traveling shoes
