Very old song about a travelling couple

Question

I remember this song where there is a couple that have been to places. The man finds different jobs while the woman stays with him.

It’s a bit sad because I’m the song their child died but, still the wife stayed with him.

Featured lyrics:

I know you're tired of wandering, my dreams and schemes

What is the title of this very old song?

Answer 1

My Elusive Dreams by Tammy Wynette and David Houston (written by Claude Putman, Billy Sherrill), released in 1967 is sang by a female and a male (the couple).

They had a child but, I some point, not there any more.

I followed you to Texas
I followed you to Utah
We didn't find it there, so we moved on
I followed you to Alabama
Things looked good in Birmingham
We didn't find it there, so we moved on
I know you're tired of following
My elusive dreams and schemes
For they're only fleeting things
My elusive dreams
I had your child in Memphis
You heard of work in Nashville
We didn't find it there, so we moved on
To a small farm in Nebraska
To a gold mine in Alaska
We didn't find it there, so we moved on
And now we've left Alaska
Because there was no go-old mine
But this time, only two of us moves on
Now all we have is each other
And a little memory to cling to
And still you won't let me go on alone
I know you're tired of following
My elusive dreams and schemes
For they're only fleeting things
My elusive dreams
For they're only fleeting things
My elusive dreams
