MONTGOMERY GENTRY - Why Do I Feel Like Running lyrics

When I was just a little baby

My mama held my hand

Tried to hold me steady all she could

But I pulled just like a full-grown man

Now mama was a real fine woman

Only angel I've ever known

Guess I must have turned out more like my daddy

A chip off the rollin' stone

Sometimes I wake up sweatin'

Yeah, eyes open wide

I feel like a freight train comin'

I wish I knew the reason why

Why do I feel like running

I love the life I'm livin'

I've made myself a happy home

I've got a woman who's in love with a man

But she's worried about my gypsy bone

Sometimes I wake up sweatin'

Yeah, eyes open wide

I feel like a freight train comin'

I wish I knew the reason why

Why do I feel like running

I tell her I ain't never leavin'

I only travel with my mind

A part of her knows that I'm in it for the long haul

But part of her knows I'm lyin'

Sometimes I wake up sweatin'

Yeah, eyes open wide

I feel like a freight train comin'

I wish I knew the reason why

Why do I feel like running

Why do I feel like running

Why do I feel like running

Why do I feel like running

Why do I feel like running

Yeah

I guess it's just my daddy's blood

That's right
