TRAVELIN' SHOES
(Clancy Hayes)
Bob Scobey's Frisco Band (vocal: Clancy Hayes) - 1956


Travelin' shoes, I have news for you
We're takin' off tomorrow at ten
I just got a note from a gal who wrote
She wants to see us again

Travelin' shoes, you carried me
Over many wearyin' miles
And you know the route, so don't give out
For a little while

And at the gate, I'll keep a permanent date
With my honey, so sunny
What is more, I'll never stray from her door again
Goin' gome and then

Travelin' shoes, I'll be through with you
I'm settin' out to settle right down
I'm gonna lose these homeless blues
Back in my home town

(Instrumental Break)

Travelin' shoes, I'll be through with you
Takin' off to settle right down
And I'm gonna lose these homeless blues
Back in my home town
Split Lip, Nevada
Back in that one horse town
