"Traveling Music" lyrics

Traveling Music

Hey, Sam
Hey, Sam on the piano
Play me a little traveling music, Sam
That woman she don't want me
Lord, she put them misery's on me
I played her Hearts And Flowers
She don't wanna dance
So let's have a little traveling music, Sam

Just play it low
And play it slow
So when I'm gone
She'll sit around chewing
On her fingernails
Kick herself around the block
For letting me go

I tried to love her
But she wanted another man
So let's have a little traveling music
Play me a little traveling music
Let's have a little traveling music, Sam

When I met her
My heart sang out a happy song
Her sweet talk
Was music to my ears
Then before I knew it
Me and she was singing a duet
So now the blues is all
I ever hear

Well, let's have a little traveling music, Sam
That woman she don't want me
Lord, she put them misery's on me
She knows a million ways
Of messing up a man
So let's have a little traveling music
Play me some traveling music
Let's have a little traveling music, Sam

Let's have a little traveling music, Sam
That woman she don't want me
Lord, she put them misery's on me
She knows a million ways
Of messing up a man
So let's have a little traveling music
Play me some traveling music
Let's have a little traveling music, Sam
Play it, Sam
