lyrics

Edward Huxley was a traveling man
He lived by the lake in a broken down van yea
Well he told me stories of Mexico nights
Losing all his money n losin his pride yea

Oh the travelin man…
Oh the travelin man…
Oh the travelin man…
Travelin man..

Well he found himself squattin on indian land
and it wasn't taken well by the locals back then
They beat him up and left him on the side of the road
But the travelin man he wasn't ready to go

Oh the travelin man…
Oh the travelin man…
Oh the travelin man…
Travelin man...

Lonely stations playing songs for change,
No-one stops to listen no...
Dusty clothes he walks on the other side of the road..
With his face in the sun yea

He was rallied by the police down on the highway 5
With a busted up noggin and two black eyes
They gave him 5 bucks and a pat on the back
He ain't never had a run in with the coppers like that no

Oh oh travelin man
Oh oh travelin man yea yea
Oh oh travelin man whoa
Travelin man yea..

You can't tell a free spirit how to live his life
and he always keeps movin' and always packs light
He may never be remembered as a mighty oak tree
Cuz he'd rather cross the desert like a tumbleweed..

The travelin man, oh lord
Travelin man, yea
Travelin man, oh
Travelin man oh oh
Travelin man yea
Travelin man oh..
