Dave Brubeck and Iola Brubeck - Travelin' Blues (Live) lyrics

I've traveled 'cross the country I've sung with lots of bands I've played in those big cities That book those one night stands I'm lonely and I'm weary I know the scene so well The blues have come to get me And to drag me down to hell But I keep travelin What have I got to lose Yes, I keep travelin Unravelin all my blues I check into a hotel And then forget its name Yes, I could ask But oh well aren't all hotels just the same Sink into the mattress Pray god my soul to keep The blues are in the streets Cries that haunt my troubled sleep But I keep travelin What have I got to lose Yes, I keep travelin Unravelin all my blues I wake up every morning And wonder where I'm at I look into the mirror And ask myself who's that I left behind a good man A face I can't recall And yet I love my old man Like or no man's been loved at all But I keep travelin What have I got to lose Yes, I keep travelin Unravelin all my blues I know the blues confuse me Hold me in their trap The lead and they lose me While round my brain they wrap A web of lonely journeys All spawned from evil thread That twist and turn and tangle me Until my soul is dead But I keep on travelin What have I got to lose Yes, I keep travelin Tryin to lose all my blues I guess I gotta hit the road again
