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