Why Do I Feel Like Running

Montgomery Gentry

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
