He lights of the motel shine on to me This is the land of the brave, sad and the lonely The last ride’s Coming to me I can feel it A new life Screaming out and I can’t miss it Travelling man Travelling man You get away if you can My body’s shaking, my body’s tired Hookers to the left of me, killers on the inside The last train Left this station long ago The headlights Shine like diamonds in the snow Like a travelling man I’m a travelling man Run away if you can Cruel world keeps turning I’m dead on my feet From the blue icy mountains to white city heat Factory fire burns like a phoenix tonight Spread your wings come on darling And your eyes Search for me but I can’t see them And your sweet mouth It speaks to me but I can’t hear it And your — your sweet smile Two thousand miles for your warm kisses And your sweet child I got one last chance and I can’t miss it No no no no Travelling man Like a travelling man Well I’m a travelling man
