I've been traveling over mountains

Even through the valleys, too

I've been traveling night and 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 night and 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 they didn't mean a thing.

I just had to reach 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 over

That's exactly what I'd do,

I would travel night and day,

And I'd still run all the way,

Baby, trying 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 as night,

He would shine His brightest light,

When I was trying to get to you.
