Lyrics :

yeah

yo yo what time the plane leaving?

alright, see you at the airport

I'm leaving, on the next plane

I don't know when I'll be back again

Kiss me and smile for me

Tell me that you'll wait for me

Hold me, like you know I'll never go

Even though you know I will

I'm a travelling man

moving through places

space and time

got a lot of things I got to do

but God willing I'm coming back to you

my baby-boo

I'm a travelling man

moving through places

space and time

gotta lotta things i got to do

but God willing I'm coming back to you

my baby-boo

I'm leaving

Well go'head and leave

the call heard around the world from the wives of MCs

these cats is paying more than half a pound

my garment bag'll snatch it down

Ain't got the skate, but we can probably run it back in town

scenarios like this is tear jerkers

for the modern emcee, ie. the blue collar worker

Cause this thing called rhyming, no different than coal mining

we both on assignment, to unearth the diamond

while you start climbing in 'em, I start shining

you be struggling and striving

and they think you prime timing

maintain and keep silent

make note and observation

this confrontation

this is the daily operation

my concentration

stay focussed on my recitation

bout to reach my destination

with no pause or hesitation

baby make the preparation

cause this ain't no recreation

this is pro-ball

and we lettin' you know y'all

at the show y'all

Doing this for doe y'all

get the phone call

and I'm ready to blow y'all

bout to go y'all

been a pleasure to know y'all

and I'm lettin' you know that

I'm leaving, on a jet plane

I don't know if I'll be back again

Kiss me and smile for me

Tell me that you'll wait for me

Hold me, like you know I'll never go

Even though you know I will

i'm a travelling man

moving through places

space and time

gotta lotta things i got to do

But Inshallah I'm coming back to you

my baby-boo

I'm a travelling man

moving through places

space and time

got a lot of things I got to do

but Inshallah I'm coming back to you

my baby-boo

I'm leaving

But God willing I'll be back home

to drop these heavy ass bags up off my back bone

around the world with a catalogue of rap songs

my baby girl is walking, been away for that long

but no you haven't well at least that's how it seem to me

my hometown is like a whole different scenery

the old timers on the stoop leaning leisurely

the new jacks up in the parks smoking greenery

easily take it for granted when you up in it

but it's sweet scented, when you been down for a minute

move around city limits, break 'em down with the vinitage

the inovinin', classical b-boy image

collect the winnings

cause it the reason that we came here

this thing is not a game here

the fortune not the fame here

from New York to the Cackalacks

Cali and the Cadillacs

Chicago no we innovate

Infiltrate Virginia state

DC make me stimulate

Philly know we penetrate

Georgia make us generate

Let's set a date to get the papes

they celebrate to my jams in foreign lands

even your mans in Japan know who I am

Menasun, make everybody out in Nippon

say ichiban, me God man bo where you hitting from

phenomenon

scuse me that's a phone call

it's a show y'all

trying to get this doe y'all

bout to blow y'all

been a pleasure to know y'all

and I'm lettin' you know

I'm leaving, on a jet plane

I don't know if I'll be back again

Kiss me and smile for me

Tell me that you'll wait for me

Hold me, like you know I'll never go

Even though you know I will

I'm a travelling man

moving through places

space and time

But Inshallah I'm coming back to you

my baby-boo

I'm a travelling man

moving through places

space and time

got a lot of things I got to do

but God willing I'm coming back to you back to you

I'm leaving

I'll be back to you

I'm leaving

I'll be back to you

All over the world, we go

DC All over the world, we go

VA All over the world, we go

The Cakalacks All over the world, we go

London All over the world, we go

Japan we go over the world, we go

Paris we go over the world we go

Shake your money maker

Shake your money maker

Shake your money maker

Move your money maker

Move your money maker
