[Verse 1]
B A A A E E E E
The man I loved ran a salesman route, selling goods from house to house.
B A A A E E E E
Now, I knew my mama would never stand for me stepping out with no traveling man.
B A A A E E E E
My mama bought things that he was a'selling but mama didn't know and I sure wasn't telling
B A A A E E E E
that behind her back I was making my plans to meet somewhere with that traveling man.
[Chorus]
E A
Oh, the traveling man was a good bit older
B7 E
but a girl needs arms to hold her.
E D
Mama didn't know because I didn't told her
D E
but mama wouldn't understand:
N.C.
me stepping out with a traveling man.
[Interlude]
B X4
[Verse 2]
B A A A E E E E
Mama didn't allow me going courting and I'd tell lies that I reckon I oughtn't.
B A A A E E E E
Oh, but she'd give me the back her hand if she'd seen me with that traveling man.
B A A A E E E E
So, I tell my mama that I reckon I ought to go to the spring and fetch us some water.
B A A A E E E E
What mama didn't know is: I had a plan to meet down there with that traveling man.
[Verse 3]
B A A A E E E E
Now I make plans to run away with that traveling man on a Saturday.
B A A A E E E E
Well, Saturday's here and here I stand and there goes my mama with that traveling man.
[Chorus]

Oh, that traveling man was a two-time lover,
B7 E
he took my love then he took my mother.
E D
But I didn't know because my mama didn't tell me
D E
and I don't understand:
N.C.
my mama running off with my traveling man.
[Outro]
B
Mmm. Mama, you know you oughtn't done that you just like my daddy:
B
he run off before I ever know him.
B
You done run-off with my traveling man
B
and I really don't think I ever know you either.
B
Oh, there goes my mama with my traveling man
B
and I'm really going to miss that traveling man. Mm-hm
