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 I have jumped the yellow cab, hopped a rusty freight Sang till my lips turned blue Flown a silver bird, from 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 Called you from Sunny Baton Rouge I 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, I 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 I ran too hard, I played too rough I gave my love, not near enough I've bled too red, I cried too blue I beat my fist against the moon All just to get to you All just to get to you All just to get to you
