Lyrics:

(Elvin Bishop)


Me and my old lady

Ain't been getting along

If things don't get better

I'll soon be long gone



The situation is driving me insane

Somebody fetch me my hat and coat

And hand me my walking cane



(Chorus:)

Gotta put on my traveling shoes

Gotta put on my traveling shoes

Gotta put on my traveling shoes

Gotta put on my traveling shoes



I'm trying to tell you, boys

These hard headed women these days

The way they treat a man

Ain't nothing but a doggone shame



I talked and talked and talked

She didn't hear a word I said



Gonna get somebody's baseball bat

And send her out again



(Chorus)
