Oh Lord,
sing me a travelin' song.
One I can sing
when I've up and gone.
And oh Lord,
send me a train.
One that will take me
to where I belong.
If you do, Lord,
I promise,
you can come along.
So please Lord,
just sing me,
a travelin' song.

This is a great song. I can relate so much. I've been travelin' life highway, waiting for God to send me a train of comfort.

No. Although I do know the song you're thinking of. It was actually inspired by my anticipation of moving away next year.
