On down the highway
Near Vicksburg and Monroe
There’s a shallow place called Ruston
Exits forty-three and four
There’s a girl in that town named April
And she blew my heart away
With not the way she looked or acted
But with what she had to say
Oh, as I think back
On where my life was then
I realize that I was lost
And lonely deep within
In north Louisiana
April had a mission
And she saw the need in me
And my detour became a lesson
As I realized that she
Had a message of a miracle
And told me of the King that died
And she еxplained to me the rеason
Then she held me as I cried
Ooh, for the first time
My life made sense to me
And I realized that who I was
Was not who I should be
In north Louisiana
The lonely lady, lonely lady came to me
Ooh, there was something in her eyes that day
A love that touched me deep inside
I knew the God that sent her love that day
Would change my life
He changed my life
He changed my life
He changed my life, changed my life
So I guess I’m just a traveler
Yes, a rambler indeed
But my life now, it has a purpose
For He had filled the need in me
So I guess I’ll just keep traveling
Yes, rambling along
And with the love I found there in Ruston
I’ll put that peddle to the floor and travel on
Travel on
Travel on
Travel on
