about

Written in the mid-1980s for The Vizitors. Nothing mysterious about this one, just a simple goodbye song. I suppose it could be interpreted as a song about the ultimate goodbye. Can't live forever . . .

lyrics

Lonesome Travellin' Song

Say goodbye
Uh so long
Time to sing a lonesome travellin' song
Au revoir
See ya 'round
Can't live forever in a one horse town
Sorry I can't stay
But I won't be far away

And we'll sail all day, we'll sail all night
We'll see our destination in the early mornin' light

Adiós
Uh farewell
Time for me to ride that dusty trail
Well, don't cry
It's OK
I'll see you again another day

Time to sing a lonesome travellin' song
I'll be back again before too long
