Harry Belafonte — Done Laid Around (AKA Gotta Travel On) lyrics

Done laid around and stayed around
This old town too long
Summer's almost gone
Summer's almost gone

Done laid around and stayed around
This old town too long
And I feel like I want to travel on

I've waited here for almost a year
Waitin' for the sun to shine
Waitin' for the sun to shine
Hopin' you'd change your mind

Waited here for almost a year
Hoping you'd change your mind
Now I feel like I want to travel on

Well, the chili wind will soon begin
I'll be on my way
Gone a lonesome day
Going home to stay

Chili wind will soon begin
I'll be on my way
Because I feel like I want to travel on

Done laid around and stayed around
This old town too long
Summer's almost gone
Summer's almost gone

Done laid around and stayed around
This old town too long
And I feel like I want to travel on
