Hey little girl with tears in your eyesDon't waste your time now asking me whyI don't know I know I'll just be moving alongYou say that home is where my love is atI said that home is where I hang my headThe time has come to sing a traveling song
You want a house and a lot of close friendsI love the feel of my back to the windThe two won't match you know the cage they wile would be wrongYou think that love is friends a child and a homeYou can't buy love on a twenty year aloneThe time has come to sing a traveling song
Someday where we sat in your old porch swingA tamer man may offer you a ringA man that wants his friends and neighbors a child and a homeDon't waste your tears on love that never could beWhat's right for others just ain't right for meThe time has come to sing a traveling song mhmm mhm
