I only travel with my mind
Guess I must have turned out more like my daddy
And tried to hold me steady all she could
I wish I knew the reason why
Sometimes I wake up a sweatin'
Why do I feel like running
Why do I feel like running
Eyes open wide
Now momma was a real fine woman
I feel like a freight train a comin'
Eyes open wide
A part of her knows that I'm in it for the long haul
I love the life I'm living
I feel like a freight train a comin'
A part of her knows I'm lying
I've got a woman who's in love with a man
I feel like a freight train a comin'
Sometimes I wake up a sweatin'
I tell her I ain't never leaving
Why do I feel like running
Eyes open wide
Sometimes I wake up a sweatin'
I wish I knew the reason why
I've made myself a happy home
But she's worried about my gypsy bone
A chip off a rolling stone
I wish I knew the reason why
Why do I feel like running
Why do I feel like running
Only angel I've ever known
But I pulled just like a full grown man
Why do I feel like running, yeah
Why do I feel like running
