Some people say I'm a no 'count Others say I'm no good
But I'm just a nat'ral-born travelin' man doin' what I think I should
Doin' what I think I should
And I don't care about a greenback dollar
Spend it as fast as I can
For a wailin' song and a good guitar
The only things that I understand
When I was a little baby my momma said
"Hey son Travel where you will and grow to be a man
And sing what must be sung
I want you do what has be done
And I don't care about a greenback dollar
Spend it as fast as I can
For a wailin' song and a good guitar
The only things that I understand
The only things that I understand
Now that I'm a grown man I've traveled here and there
I've learned that a bottle of brandy and a good guitar
Only thing that i care Only thing that i care
And I don't care about a greenback dollar
Spend it as fast as I can
For a wailin' song and a good guitar
The only things that I understand
I don't care about a greenback dollar
Spend it as fast as I can
For a wailin' song and a good guitar
The only things that I understand
The only things that I understand
The only things that I understand
The only things that I understand
