Subject: Re: I've Been Everywhere by Hank Snow

Sherry Orr asked for this. This is how I do it and it may differ from
Hank's version. If anyone needs help with the Nashville Numbering
System, email me. I start this in the Key of E, and it seems that Hank
did too.

I've Been Everywhere
Recorded by: Hank Snow
Submitted by: Thomas Rivers <[email protected]>

I was totin' my pack along a dusty Winnemucca road
When along came a semi with a high canvas covered load
"If you're going to Winnemucca, Mac with me you can ride."
So I climbed into the cab and then I settled down inside
He asked me if I'd seen a road with so much dust and sand
And I said, [break] "Listen, Bud I've traveled every road in this here
land."

(Chorus)
I've been everywhere, man, I've been everywhere, man
'Cross the deserts bare, man, I've breathed the mountain air, man
Of travel, I've had my share, man, I've been everywhere.

Sarasota,
Wichita, Tulsa, Ottawa, Oklahoma, Tampa, Panama, Mattawa, La Paloma,
