Mama always reminds me that we're only passin' through |
|
The treasures of this world are not for us to hold on to |
|
She says the way we're headed |
|
Will take us where we're bound |
|
And we can not lay are journey down |
|
Chorus |
|
Because all god's children need travelin' shoes |
|
To walk the road that's narrow but it's true |
|
We can't stop here we're just passin' through |
|
That's why all god's children need travelin' shoes |
|
My bags are pack and waiting and I'm headed for the door |
|
The train Is at the station , got my ticket and I'll board |
|
The brakeman swings his lantern |
|
Lit with never ending love |
|
And mama I can't thank you near enough |
|
Chorus repeats twice |
|
We can't stop here we're just passin' through |
|
That's why all god's children need travelin' shoes |
