i try to travel around with less and less i tried them all and the simple way is the way that s best i save a lot of time not havin to choose what color shirt i wear or which pair of shoes don t need a guitar to sing my song wherever i land i ll always get along chorus i ve been up and down the road a time or two i guess now i try to travel around with less and less i had a woman once she was not my wife i took a long detour on the road of life i carried that weight and almost broke my back nearly lost the ones i love getting back on track wasted lots of time and i still feel the pain made a vow that i won t go through that again chorus coffee in the mornin a little wine at night a meal somewhere in the middle i think i ll be alright i ve got my pride i got a smile to greet the day i got a friend or two to help me through when i lose my way don t need a guitar to sing my song wherever i land i ll always get along i ve been up and down the road a time or two i guess now it s time to travel around with less and less
