I've been traveling over mountains
Even through the valleys too
I've been traveling all day
I've been running all the way
Baby, trying to get to you
Ever since I read your letter
Where you said you loved me true
I've been traveling all day I've been running all the way
Baby,
trying to get to you When I read your loving letter
Then my heart began to sing There were many miles between us
But it didn't mean a thing I just had to read you,
baby
In spite of all that I've been through
I kept traveling night and day
I kept running all the way Baby,
trying to get to you
Well,
if I had to do it all That's exactly what I'd do
I would travel night and day I might still run all the way
Baby, trying to get to you
There was nothing that could hold me Or could keep away from you
When your loving letter told me
That you really loved me true
He knows I loved
It was he who brought me through
When my way was dark at night He would shine as bright as light
When I was trying to get to you
