Travelin' Kid

Well, the only thing I need to pack
Is a guitar on my back
With a suitcase filled with clothes
Only God knows where I'll go
And a goodbye kiss goes a long ways
Explaining more than my words can say
She fakes a soft smile behind the tears
I leave the driveway and disappear
'Cause these dreams that I've been chasing
Ain't the ones you believe in
You need a man who's there when you break down
Not a kid who's just travelin' through town
And it's the same smell of an old cigar
Playing every night at a different bar
Making good money comes with a cost
And sometimes, it ain't worth the loss
But she waits by the phone
And I'm a fool for leaving her all alone
I can hear her prayers from miles away
Don't worry, darlin', it'll be okay
'Cause these dreams that I've been chasing
Ain't the ones you believe in
You need a man who's there when you break down
Not a kid who's just travelin' through town
'Cause these dreams that I've been chasing
Ain't the ones you believe in
You need a man who's there when you break down
Not a kid who's just travelin' through town
Not a kid who's just travelin' through town
