Lord i’m traveling low
I got to find my way down road
And you can find me by the river tonight
With a beatin’ in my soul
You might find me in the mountains
You might find me near the creek
You might find me where that river flows
Where the water’s running deep
And you might see me running
But you’ll never see me stay
Cause the road is long and my troubles deep
I need to run these blues away
But that melody is calling
And I’ll be there before long
Well there’s a smokestack burning from the devil’s den
That can never do you wrong
Lord i’m traveling low
I got to find my way down road
And you can find me by the river tonight
With a beatin’ in my soul
You might find me near the fire
You might find me near the band
Cause music’s gonna heal your soul
Better than any medicine man
And you can hear those drums a drummin
You can play your tambourine
You can sing your heartstrings into the night
And you can wash your worries clean
And that fire burns inside you
And you can feel it come alive
And you feel that beat down into your toes
Let the spirits roam the night
Lord i’m traveling low
I got to find my way down road
And you can find me by the river tonight
With a beatin’ in my soul
Well in the morning I’ll be walking
In the morning I’ll be gone
But when that evening falls by the riverbed
You’re gotta hear that devil’s song
Lord i’m traveling low
I got to find my way down road
And there’s a fire by the river tonight
You gotta hear that devil’s call
