I was born by the river
On the heights of a Salford town
With my head in the stars
And my feet dwon
Down on the ground
I was south and bound
Lookin' for love -
Lookin' for somethin' to call my own

I'm a traveller, babe
I'm a traveller, babe
I keep on movin' on
I'm a traveller, child
In a travellin' land

It's gonna be a brand new day
It's gonna be a brand new day
When I find you, babe
Gotcha deep down in my soul
Like a river
Gotcha deep down in my heart
Gonna set me free
Through the miles and miles
Now I'm rollin' on and on
I can't look back
You got to follow me down

'Cause I'm a traveller, babe...

Yes, I was south and down
Lookin' for love
And somethin' to call my own
Maybe now, yes, maybe now, child
I can get one step closer to home

'Cause I'm a traveller, babe...
