Traveling On

I went down to the Greyhound station
I picked up a long legged man
I never thought someone could have so much control over me
This simple heart never even had a chance

We laid down up by the Brazos River
He kept me from the cold
And the tremble in his voice put the devil in my soul
And whispered me a story never told

Lord save my soul from thinking about him
I can't be around him I knew it all along
And I don't like how the tales unravelin'
So I keep travelin' travelin' on

I wish some nights that things were different
But I can't help what's in your mind
And you're so lost in your own world you can't even hear me crying
It's hard for me to leave it all behind

I think now upon that river
About when I lost all the will to try
Those blue eyes will no longer have control over me
Cause I wanna get to heaven when I die

Lord save my soul from thinking about him
I can't be around him I knew it all along
And I don't like how the tales unravelin'
So I keep travelin' travelin' on
So I keep travelin' travelin' on
