It's always fun to sing Rick Nelson's hit songs. Word on the street was Fuller didn't think the song would do as well as it did. This was fun for me to record back in my earlier days

Story behind the song
I use to like to sing a lot of Elvis songs back in the day. My sisters were more partial to Rick Nelson's songs. They suggested that I learn some of Nelson's songs. I liked Jerry Fuller's "Traveling Man" and the way Rick Nelson sang it.
It is always fun for me to record cover songs I like.
Lyrics
I'm a travelin' man
I've made a lot of stops all over the world
And in every port I own the heart
Of at least one lovely girl
I've a pretty Seniorita waiting for me
Down in old Mexico
If you're ever in Alaska stop and see
My cute little Eskimo
Oh my sweet Fraulien down in Berlin town
Makes my heart start to yearn
And my China doll down in old Hong Kong
Waits for my return
Pretty Polynesian baby over the sea
I remember the night
When we walked in the sands of the Waikiki
And I held you oh so tight
------ instrumental break ------
Oh my sweet Fraulien down in Berlin town
Makes my heart start to yearn
And my China doll down in old Hong Kong
Waits for my return
Pretty Polynesian baby over the sea
I remember the night
When we walked in the sands of the Waikiki
And I held you oh so tight
Oh, I'm a travelin' man
Yes, I'm a travelin' man
