Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Traveling Kind (from Country Gentlemen)
Charlie Waller and the Country Gentlemen recorded this song. Charlies son Randy now does it with the Country Gentlemen. When Charlie recourded it it was call Travelin' Kind.

Oh Lord I am a traveling man
And My Daddy, so was he
And every day when the sun goes down
Oh My Lord I just got to be free

Chours: Listen to the sound of the fallen rain
Listen to the wale of the south bound train
That's a lonely sound, Thats a lonely sign
I'm a lonely man in a lonely time.

The rich man has no use for me
Nor have I any for he
He'll judge a man, by the clothes he wears
Judge I a man by the burdens he bears

Chours: A ha rich man, laughs on you
You live and die, by another mans rules
And when we both are dead and gone
The legend of my kind will live on

Go play with your houses, of white and wood
And live your life like you think you should
I'll ride these rails until I die
And if I get lonesome I'll just have to ride

Chours: Listen to the sound of the falling rain
Listen to the wale of the southbound train
That's a lonely sound, that's a lonely sign
I'm a lonely man, in a lonely time.

Charlie and Randy both does this song in Em. The verse is just Em and Am. The chours is C, G, C, G, Em on the first 2 lines the last 2 lines Em and Am. This is a very cool song and I hope I have helped you.
