Yeah, you know gotta go
I gotta go, gotta go
Yeah, yeah, yeah, gotta go

I really wanted to take you with me
On my little country journey
But you have to understand, oh why
And not sit alone at home and cry
And cry, alone at home and cry, and cry

Even though you're not here by my side, yeah
Truly you're always on my mind
So I just called to sing a lullaby, oh yeah
To comfort your heart so you never cry, yeah

I really wanted to take you with me
On my little country journey
But you have to understand, oh why
And not sit alone at home and cry

I really wanted to take you with me
On my little country journey
But you have to understand, oh why
And not sit alone at home and cry
And cry, alone at home and cry, and cry

Well, well, well tell her not to worry you'll be okay
She should pray for your safety night and day, yeah
Soon back together you'll be again
I know you both can't wait to see that day, yeah, yeah, yeah

I really wanted to take you with me
On my little country journey
But you have to understand, oh why
And not sit alone at home and cry

I really wanted to take you with me
On my little country journey
But you have to understand, oh why
And not sit alone at home and cry
And cry, alone at home and cry, and cry

Wherever you are just call his name
He'll hear your voice and it'll make his day
A day doesn't pass when you're not on his mind
Please don't cry, you'll be together in time

Even though you're not here by my side, oh
Truly you're always on my mind, yeah
So I just called to sing a lullaby, oh yeah
To comfort your heart so you'll never cry, yeah, yeah
