Lyr Req: Travelin' Man (Bob Seger)

From: winterchild

Dear mudcatters;

A fragment of a song is haunting me; neither the song's name nor the singer can I recall, but it's sort of a rock song. The words are the refrain - "These are the memories, that make me a wealthy soul; _these_ are the memories, that make me - a wealthy soul!"

Who can help me with this one?

Hopefully,
WinterChild

Travelin' Man- by Bob Seger, c. 1975

Up with the sun, gone with the wind
She always said I wass lazy
Leavin' my home, leavin' my friends
Runnin' when things get too crazy
Out to the road, out 'neath the stars
Feelin' the breeze, passin' the cars

Women have come, women have gone
Everyone tryin' to cage me
Oh, someone so sweet, I nearly got free
Others they only rage me
Sometimes at night, I see their faces
I feel the traces they've left on my soul
Those are the memories that make me a wealthy soul
Those are the memories that make me a wealthy soul

Travelin' man, love when I can
Turn in my hand 'cause I'm goin' on
Oh, travelin' man, love when I can
But sooner or later I'm goin' on, yea
Travelin man

[break]

Sometimes at night, I see their faces
I feel the traces they've left on my soul
But those are the memories that make me a wealthy soul
I tell you those are the memories that make me a wealthy soul
Travelin' man, yea


Cheers! Chaz

"memories are made of this"

I think Perry Como sang it

hmmm - about memories, not self-enrichment, but a nice song nonetheless.
(I'm afraid I'm one of those people who like all sorts of music - not everthing, but a great variety!)
