Passing Through

[Chorus]
Passin' through, passin' through
Sometimes happy, sometimes blue
Glad that I ran into you
Tell the people that you saw me passin' through

[Verse 1]
I shivered next to Washington one night at Valley Fort
Why do men suffer like they do
Man will suffer man will fight even die for what is right
Even though they know they're only passin' through

[Chorus]
Passin' through, passin' through
Sometimes happy, sometimes blue
Glad that I ran into you
Tell the people that you saw me passin' through

[Verse 2]
At the town of New Orleans the biggest fight I ever seen
Ol' Hickory how you fight the way you do
It's not the way you fight, it's fightin' for the right
I've so little time and I'm just passin' through

[Chorus]
Passin' through passin' through
Sometimes happy, sometimes blue
Glad that I ran into you
Tell the people that you saw me passin' through

[Verse 3]
I heard the raven cry remember the Alamo
Saint Anna you met your Waterloo
Now talk of love not hate, things to do it's gettin' late
I've so little time and I'm just passin' through

[Chorus]
Passin' through passin' through
Sometimes happy, sometimes blue
Glad that I ran into you
Tell the people that you saw me passin' through

Tell the people that you saw me passin' through
Tell the people that you saw me passin' through
