Song Lyrics

[Chorus:]
I done laid around and played around this old town too long.
Summer's almost gone; yes, winter's coming on.
Well, I've laid around and played around this old town too long,
And I feel like I've gotta travel on.
Chilly winds will soon begin, and I'll be on my way;
I'll be on my way; yes, I'm goin' alone some day.
Chilly winds will soon begin, and I'll be on my way,
And I feel like I've gotta travel on.

(Chorus)

I want to see my honey, I want to see her bad;
want to see her bad, want to see her bad.
Well, I want to see my honey, I want to see her bad;
She's the best gal this poor boy ever had.

(Chorus)

There's a lonesome freight at 6:08, comin' through the town;
Comin' through the town; yes, I'll be homeward bound.
There's a lonesome freight at 6:08, comin' through the town,
And I feel like I've gotta travel on.

(Chorus)

And I feel like I've gotta travel on.
