Travelin’ Band (At The Royal Albert Hall / London, UK / April 14, 1970) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
737 coming out of the sky
Won't you take me down to Memphis on a midnight ride?

[Chorus]
I want to move
Playing in a travelin' band, yeah
Well, I'm flying across the land, trying to get a hand
Playing in a travelin' band

[Verse 2]
Take me to the hotel, baggage gone, oh well
Come on, come on, won't you get me to my room?

[Chorus]
I want to move
Playing in a travelin' band, yeah
Well, I'm flying 'cross the land, trying to get a hand
Playing in a travelin' band

[Verse 3]
Listen to the radio talking 'bout the last show
Someone got excited, had to call the state militia

[Chorus]
I want to move
Playing in a travelin' band
Well, I'm flying across thе land, trying to get a hand
Playing in a travelin' band
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
Herе we come again on a Saturday night
With your fussing and your fighting
Won't you get me to the right?

[Chorus]
I want to move
Playing in a travelin' band, yeah
Well, I'm flying across the land trying to get a hand
Playing in a travelin' band, woo

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]
Oh, playing in a travelin' band
Playing in a travelin' band
Won't you get me, take me hand
Well, I'm playing in a travelin' band
Well, I'm flying 'cross the land, trying to get a hand
Playing in a travelin' band, oh no

[Interlude]
Thank you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
