(words & music by C. Singleton - R.M. McCoy)
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.
