Well it's good to see you but I can't stay long

No I've got a travelin' fever baby, got a travelin' Jones

No don't look for me in the mornin' baby, I'm gonna be travelin' on

I'll be good, as good as gold to the next or maybe better

Wait for me down the road, keep one eye open for my letter

'Cause I'm gonna be travelin', travelin' baby, travelin' on

Lord, it's good to see you but I can't stay long

Oh, I've got a travelin' fever baby, got a travelin' Jones

I'll be up before the sun, get a big jump on the morning

You should have known all along

You should have known you'd get no warning

And I'm gonna be travelin', travelin' baby, travelin' on

But Lord, it's good to see you but I won't stay long

Oh, I got a travelin' fever baby, I got a travelin' Jones

Yeah, don't look for me in the mornin' baby, I'm gonna be travelin'

Travelin' on, travelin' on, travelin' on, travelin' on

Yeah it's good to see you but I can't stay long

Yeah I got a travelin' fever baby, a travelin' Jones
