Shotgun misherad lyrics? - Jr. Walker

[jobucats]

Speaking of misheard, or even non-distinguishable lyrics, did anyone else besides me found the first phrase of the first sentence of the group's "I'm a Road Runner" difficult to decipher? Until I finally googled it last year, I never knew what he was singing, and it makes sense. I won't spoil it for those who were in the dark like I was.

Money, who needs it
Let me live my life free and easy
Put the toothbrush in my hand
And let me be a travlin' man

Money, who needs it
Let me live my life free and easy
Put the toothbrush in my hand
And let me be a travlin' man

Thanks, I eventually got it after taking the time to research the lyrics last year. Never understood what he was singing on that first line. I believe it was that first word, "money", he sang that threw me because I only heard one syllable which gave me a mental block on what the following three words were.
