In a shabby bar
Of a nowhere town
She was lookin' like a star
She was really feelin' down

I sat beside her and she needed a light
I wanted to give her more to make her feel right
And first she hesitated then she wanted to be paid
Last I told her I ain't gonna stay

In a lonely park
Both knowin' what she needs
To heal her broken heart
She needs a reason
A reason to be free

Come on, baby
Shove your troubles away
I'll give you a chance to be happy
Why don't you take it today?

I'm your travеllin' man
And I take what I need when I can
I'm your travellin' man
Gonna takе what I need
I need you, I need you, I need you
Oh, you know I do, yeah

In other bars and other shabby towns
The kids are lookin' up, the kids are feelin' down
They got the will, they're out to get their share
And leads you doin' what others won't dare

In a lonely park
Both knowin' what she needs
To heal her broken heart
She needs a reason
A reason to be free

Come on, baby
Shove your troubles away
I'll give you a chance to be happy
Why don't you take it today?

I'm your travellin' man
And I take what I need when I can
I'm your travellin' man
Gonna take what I need
I need you, I need you, I need you
Oh, yes

I'm your travellin' man
I'm your travellin' man
Lord, I need you, I need you, I do
I'm your travellin' man
I'm your travellin' man
I'm your travellin' man
I'm your travellin' man

I'm your travellin' man
I'm your travellin' man
Lord, I need you, I need you
