Lyrics
I can't shake Baby can't take
You can't break my travelin' bone
Stick around stuck in one place for too long
Start feelin' an ache in my travelin' bone
Cause the highway is long and the highway is bare
& wherever it goes I don't really care
Been gone so long I been gettin' off track
Don't know where I am but I'm glad to be back
Ain't it a shame It's always the same
I just can't tame my travelin' bone
Climb out the window, whistle a song
Thumb me a ride with my travelin' bone
Baby I love how you treat me so mean
I can take to the road when you're makin' a scene
I wait for my time like a cat in the weeds
Got nothin' to lose but it's more than I need
inst.
I can't lie I'd never deny
You might wanna try your travelin' bone
Free your self from the troubles you own
& run for the hills with your travelin' bone
The highway is long and the highway is cold
& when it's callin' your name you just got to go
Your drownin' your soul, let me throw you a line
You better grab it fast while you still got the time
