V2

I hear he came to town one day in a rust old "49 Ford

Sellin' ladies shoes and assorted greetin' cards

He was killin' good lookin' and easy to like and turnin' all the ladies heads

But he saw mama first and you've heard stories about how some of the

travelin' men are
Chorus

Mama seemed to forget the things that Grandma Kate had always told her

Cause she ran away one night with that traveling man

They bought gas a Reba's truckstop and drove to Desoto county

But he brought her home next day a lady with a ring upon her hand

Mama's told me how the fever took him when I was barely five

And I can remeber him pitchein' me up and catchin' me

Lord I love to sit and listen to her tell me about my daddy

She says he thought the sun must surely rise and set in me
Chorus
And I wish I'd a known the man a little better that turned my mama on

He must have been a helluva man cause mama was a lady don't you know.

Play it loud and proud!! Don't let these classics die!!
