Merle Travis - No Vacancy (Live) Lyrics

Lyrics No Vacancy (Live) - Merle Travis



All along the road of life I roam
Lookin' for a place to call my own
Not a fancy mansion or a bungalow for me
Ev'rywhere I go I seem to find
Hangin' on the door that same old sign
And my heart beats slower when I read on the door, "No Vacancy"
No Vacancy, No Vacancy
All along the line it's the same old sign waitin' for me
No Vacancy, No Vacancy
And my heart beats slower when I read on the door
"No Vacancy"
Not so long ago when the bullets screamed
Many was the happy dream I dreamed
Of a little nest where I could rest when the world was free
Now the mighty war over there is won
Troubles and trials have just begun
As I face that terrible enemy sign, "No Vacancy"
Brother, if you live a life of ease
Better take a moment on your knees
Thank the Lord above for all His love, then think of me
Livin' in a world of greed and hate
Hoping ev'ry day the hand of fate
Will remove that sign that's a-hangin' on the door, "No Vacancy"
