Lyrics

Got the blues in Batton Rouge walked a mile or two then caught her eye

Feeling melancholic in Baton Rouge, walked a mile or two, caught someone's attention.

I got out in Memphis she smiled at me and slowly said goodbye

In Memphis, after getting out, received a farewell smile, and she said goodbye.

She asked me if I'd like to tag along a little farther down the line

Invited to join for further travel down the line.

But travelin' round and bein' free that's only way life's good to me

Embracing the lifestyle of traveling and freedom as the only way life feels good.


Here I am in Memphis without a dime or a place to sleep

In Memphis with no money or a place to sleep, enduring the heat.

Sure is hot and sweaty the tar is even bubbling on the street

Describing the intense heat in Memphis, with tar bubbling on the street.

None of this bothered me that's the only cup o'tea that I can drink

The challenging circumstances don't bother because it's the preferred way of life.

Cause travelin' round and bein' free that's only way life's good to me

Reiterating that traveling and being free is the only way life feels good.


I may move on in the morning and never know just how long I'll stay

Considering moving on in the morning, uncertain about the duration of stay.

Sometimes I'll stay a month or two sometimes I don't even stay a day

Stays vary from a month to not even a day, free from commitments.

No one tried to tie me down and it's quite a friendly town I'll stick around

People in the friendly town don't try to tie the speaker down.

Cause travelin' round and bein' free that's only way life's good to me

Reaffirming that traveling and being free is the preferred way of life.


I've tried a lot of steady jobs but never seen one make me happy yet

Experimented with various jobs but none brought happiness.

I've lived my life so many ways tried everything and now I know what's best

Lived life in different ways, tried everything, and now knows what suits best.

I wouldn't trade with anyone a billion dollars wouldn't move me none

Wouldn't trade the current lifestyle for anything, even a billion dollars.

Cause travelin' round and bein' free that's only way life's good to me

Restating that traveling and being free is the only way life's good.

Cause travelin' round and bein' free that's only way life's good to me

Emphasizing once again that this lifestyle is the key to a good life.

Cause travelin' round and bein' free that's only way life's good to me

Continuing to stress that traveling and being free define a fulfilling life.
