Chorus:
I am a lonely and a lonesome traveller,
Well I am a lonely and a lonesome traveller,
Well I am a lonely and a lonesome traveller,
And I'm gonna travel right along.

Well I've travelled in the hills, I've travelled in the valleys,
Travelled in the hills, I've travelled in the valleys,
I've travelled in the hills, I've travelled in the valleys,
And I'm gonna travel right along.

Chorus

Well I've travelled cold and then I've travelled hungry,
I've travelled cold and then I've travelled hungry,
I've travelled cold and then I've travelled hungry,
I'm gonna travel right along.

Chorus

Well now one of these days I'm gonna stop all my travelling,
Well one of these days I'm gonna stop all my travelling,
Hey one of these days I'm gonna stop all my travelling,
And I'm gonna travel no more.
Till then boy...

Chorus

I'm gonna keep right on a-travelling down that road to freedom (x3)
And I'm gonna travel right on.

Chorus

I'm gonna travel right on (x2)
