Charley Pride - That's The Only Way Life's Good To Me lyrics

Got the blues in Batton Rouge walked a mile or two then caught her eye

I got out in Memphis she smiled at me and slowly said goodbye

She asked me if I'd like to tag along a little farther down the line

But travelin' round and bein' free that's only way life's good to me

Here I am in Memphis without a dime or a place to sleep

Sure is hot and sweaty the tar is even bubbling on the street

None of this bothered me that's the only cup o'tea that I can drink

Cause travelin' round and bein' free that's only way life's good to me

I may move on in the morning and never know just how long I'll stay

Sometimes I'll stay a month or two sometimes I don't even stay a day

No one tried to tie me down and it's quite a friendly town I'll stick around

Cause travelin' round and bein' free that's only way life's good to me

I've tried a lot of steady jobs but never seen one make me happy yet

I've lived my life so many ways tried everything and now I know what's best

I wouldn't trade with anyone a billion dollars wouldn't move me none

Cause travelin' round and bein' free that's only way life's good to me

Cause travelin' round and bein' free that's only way life's good to me

Cause travelin' round and bein' free that's only way life's good to me
