Norma Gale
We stayed in White River
And we drank it dry
Did you feel as lost as I did?
In that maze of old motel rooms
And living room floors
When I walked Toronto down to Nashville
I knew I had to keep on going
I knew I had to keep on going
I was an angel every morning
And I was a devil in the night
Did you feel as lost as I did?
When your father left us lonely
When the money ran too low
When I knew the bar was empty
I knew I had to keep on going
I knew I had to keep on going
I knew I had to keep on going
I knew I had to keep on going
I wanted to believe
In every promise that I made
I was working every night
While you were picking up the change
And I sang to you my darlin'
Each time I walked away
Oh you know I had to go
I couldn't stay
In a brilliant flash of silver
I saw my life inside a gun
I know you felt as lost as I did
You cried half the way to Graceland
In the middle of the night
With your head upon my shoulder
I knew I had to keep on going
I knew I had to keep on going
Oh, I knew I had to keep on going
I knew I had to keep on going
Oh, I knew I had to keep on going (I knew I had to keep on going)
I knew I had to keep on going
And we drank it dry
Did you feel as lost as I did?
In that maze of old motel rooms
And living room floors
When I walked Toronto down to Nashville
I knew I had to keep on going
I knew I had to keep on going
I was an angel every morning
And I was a devil in the night
Did you feel as lost as I did?
When your father left us lonely
When the money ran too low
When I knew the bar was empty
I knew I had to keep on going
I knew I had to keep on going
I knew I had to keep on going
I knew I had to keep on going
I wanted to believe
In every promise that I made
I was working every night
While you were picking up the change
And I sang to you my darlin'
Each time I walked away
Oh you know I had to go
I couldn't stay
In a brilliant flash of silver
I saw my life inside a gun
I know you felt as lost as I did
You cried half the way to Graceland
In the middle of the night
With your head upon my shoulder
I knew I had to keep on going
I knew I had to keep on going
Oh, I knew I had to keep on going
I knew I had to keep on going
Oh, I knew I had to keep on going (I knew I had to keep on going)
I knew I had to keep on going
