Traveller Man Lyrics by Jordan (UK)

Crooks & Queens

2022

I met a traveller man, he was grey and old
Shared a cell for the first week he barely spoke
Offered him food and I offered him clothes
But he kindly refused them both
On a rainy day, when the jail was soaked
To the sound of rainfall we thought of home
Put tobacco in a rizla and rolled a smoke
Then I knocked his bunk and offered him a go
Took it with a nod and then he smoked to the roach
As finished his cig and cleared his throat
Said I’ll tell you what son for the love you've shown
I’m going to give you some advice worth more than gold
Travelled all my life, been around the globe
Fought the Mexican heat and the Canadian cold
I’ve worked the streets of Britain to the golden coast
I’ve danced with the devil and the Holy Ghost
So listen to me when I speak
And here’s what he told
You’ll love a lot of whores before you find a wife
Got to walk through darkness to find the light
You’ll take a few blows that you didn’t see coming
When they knock you off the road, you just gotta keep running
Your going to want the luxuries, money and fame
Till woman and drugs, leave you drained
All alone feeling ashamed
I listened to him speak till late at night
Then I told him I got problems and a crazy mind
I’ve been hurt off some girls, and some mates of mine
Tell myself I’ll stay free but fail every time
He took a deep breath sat up and sighed
And looked me square right in the eyes
He said I know a man to make problems demised
A man so smart and wise
A man so smart and wise
He once turned water into wine
He created the sun he created the sky
He said my brother you need Jesus Christ
