Joe Ely - All Just to Get to You lyrics

I have stumbled on the plains Staggered in the wind Stood at a crossroad or two Cried to a river Swept to the sea All just to get to you I have flagged a yellow cab Hopped a rusty freight Sang till my lips turned blue Flown a silver bird On the tops of the clouds All just to get to you I ran too hard I played too Rough I gave my Love Not near Enough I bled too red I cried too blue I beat my fist Against the moon All just to get to you I have run from St. Paul To Wichita Falls Call'd you from sunny Baton Rouge Hocked everything From my watch to my ring All just to get to you I ran too hard I played too Rough I gave you Love Not near Enough I bled too red I cried too blue I beat my fist Against the moon All just to get to you From the California Shore Where the mighty ocean roars To the lands of the Hopi and the Sioux I walked the desert sands Crossed the Rio Grande All just to get to you I have stumbled on the plains Staggered in the wind Stood at a crossroad or two Cried to a river Swept to the sea All just to get to you
