Well, I've been travelin' over mountains, 
now even through the valleys too, 
Well I've been travelin' night and day 
runnin' all the way baby 
tryin' to get to you 

Well since I read your lovin' letter 
where you said you love me true 
well I been travelin' night and day 
runnin' all the way 
baby tryin' to get to you 

Well now there's nothin' that could hold me 
or to keep me way from you 
Since your lovin' letter told me 
that you really love me true 
I just had to reach you baby 
back of all that I've been through 

I'll keep travelin' night and day 
runnin' all the way baby 
tryin' to get to you 
Well if I had to do it over, 
well that's exactly what I'd do, 

I'd keep travelin' night and day 
runnin' all the way baby 
tryin' to get to you 
Well since I read your lovin' letter 
well my heart began to sing 
There are many miles between us 
but they didn't mean a thing 
Lord's above he knows I love you 
Well it was he who brought me through, 
when my way was black as night 
He'd still shine bright as light 
when I was tryin' to get to you
