Traveling Light Lyrics by Tim Flavin, Guys and Dolls Studio Ensemble

Guys and Dolls: First Complete Recording

0

[Verse]
\nMost guys buy themselves houses
\nAnd promptly box themselves in
\nWith the stove and the wife
\nA subscription to Life
\nAnd the sound of Junior practicing violin
\nAnd they no longer dream about places they'll go
\nThey just brood about places they've been
\nWell, thank you very much
\nThough the joys be many
\nThank you very much
\nI'm not havin' any
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nI'm travelin' light
\nNo one's weighin' me down
\nGot my ticket in my pocket and I'm ready to blow town
\nTicket in my pocket and I'm ready to blow town
\nI'm travelin' light
\nMister, see what I mean?
\nGot my ticket in my pocket if I don't likе your routine
\nTicket in my pocket and I'm rеady to break clean
\nAnd I'm damned if your mortgage I'll carry
\nThough your proposition's a beaut
\nAnd I'm damned if your sister I'll marry
\nGuess I left my heart in my other suit
\nAnd I'm travelin' light
\nNo one's weighin' me down
\nGot my ticket in my pocket for the minute the gods frown
\nTicket in my pocket and I'm ready to blow town
\nI'm travelin' light
\nNo one's weighin' me down
\nGot my ticket in my pocket and I'm ready to blow town
\nTicket in your pocket and you're ready to blow town
\nYou're travelin' light
\nMister, see what I mean?
\nGot my ticket in my pocket if I don't like your routine
\nTicket in your pocket and you're ready to break clean
\nAnd I'm damned if your mortgage I'll carry
\nThough your proposition's a beaut
\nAnd I'm damned if your sister I'll marry
\nGuess you left your heart in my other suit
\nAnd I'm travelin' light
\nNo one's weighin' me down
\nGot your/my ticket in your/my pocket
\nFor the minute the gods frown
\nTicket in my pocket and I'm ready (You're ready)
\nTo blow town\n\n
