I've made the harvest of the wheat in Kansas
I've worked construction jobs in Idaho
I've stevedored along the docks in Frisco
I have shrimped the Gulf of Mexico
And that makes me a very well traveled man

I've rough-necked in the oil fields of Texas
I have pulled a ten foot cotton sack
Searched for the Dutchman's gold in Arizona
In Oregon a tall tree lumberjack
And that makes me a very well traveled man

A jack of all trades master of none
Man I really got it made
Cause all I gotta do is follow the sun
Do my sleepin' in the shade

They say that travel broadens ones horizons
So I never let a freight train pass me by
And absence always makes the heart grow fonder
So it's hello sweet baby and goodbye
And that makes me a very well traveled man
And that makes me a very well traveled man
