  Greg, here is a song someone requested awhile back.It was written by 

  Hoyt Axton. I'm not sure who performed it, it may have been the Kingston 

  Trio.

  

  

  Em                    G           Em                G 

  Some people say I'm a no count, others say I'm no good,

       C7                       G

  But I'm just a natural born travelin man, 

  D                         Em

  Doin what I think I should, Oh yeah, 

  D                          EM

  Doin what I think I should.

  

  chorus

          G            C            G         C

  And I don't give a damn about a greenback dollar,

  G         C         G

  Spend it fast as I can,

  C      G      C           G          C

  For a wailin song, and a good guitar,

        D                           Em 

  The only thing thatas I understand, Poor boy,

        D                         Em     

  The only thing that I understand.

  

  

  When I was a little babe, my mama said hey son,

  

  Travel where you will, and grow to be a man,

  

  And sing what must be sung, poor boy,

  

  Sing what must be sung.

  

  chorus

  

  Now that I'm a grown man, I've travelled here and there,

  

  I've learned that a bottle of brandy and a song,

  

  The only ones who ever cared, poor boy,

  

  The only ones who ever cared

  

  chorus
