From: GUEST,Sandra Gordon

Does anyone out there know of a song called "The more I travel" written by Bob Beers and sung at the Fox Hollow folk festival in NY years ago, before 1967 when he was killed in an auto accident. I think the song title is "The More I Travel" It also has the following refrain: The more I travel, the farther I go, the more I learn, the less I know, hum umm umm, um um um um.

One of the verses goes "When I was young I used to think, that life was white or black as ink. But now I see that black is gray, and white gets darker every day" Thanks so much in advance. this is a great site.

It doesn't seem to be in the DT. Anyone?

I looked at lunch, but I didn't see it on any of the (few) records I have, or in my song file. I remember the song, and I'll keep looking. (It may take years, though.)
