V2
I hear he came to town one day in a rust old "49 Ford
Sellin' ladies shoes and assorted greetin' cards
He was killin' good lookin' and easy to like and turnin' all the ladies heads
But he saw mama first and you've heard stories about how some of the travelin' men are

Chorus

Mama seemed to forget the things that Grandma Kate had always told her
Cause she ran away one night with that traveling man
They bought gas a Reba's truckstop and drove to Desoto county
But he brought her home next day a lady with a ring upon her hand

Mama's told me how the fever took him when I was barely five                
And I can remeber him pitchein' me up and catchin' me
Lord I love to sit and listen to her tell me about my daddy
She says he thought the sun must surely rise and set in me

Chorus
And I wish I'd a known the man a little better that turned my mama on
He must have been a helluva man cause mama was a lady don't you know.
