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 2x]
|
|
We can't stop here we're just passin' through
|
