Hornsby Bruce The Valley Road Lyrics

The Valley Road Lyrics

Sometimes I lead, sometimes I follow

 This time I'll go where she wants me to go

 She said maybe today maybe tomorrow

 Go deep in the woods down the low valley road

 

 While no one was looking on the old plantation

 He took her all the way down the long valley road

 They sent her away not too much later

 And left him walking down the old valley road

 Walk on, walk on

 Walk on, walk on, walk on alone

 

 Out in the hall they were taling in a whisper

 Everybody noticed she was gone awhile

 Somebody said she's gone to her sister's

 But everybody knew what they were talking about

 

 While no one was looking on the old plantation

 He showed her what they do down the long valley road

 She came back around like nothing really happened

 And left him standing on the old valley road

 Walk on, walk on

 Walk on, walk on, walk on alone

 

 Standing like a stone on the old plantation

 The rich old man would have never let him in

 Good enough to hire not good enough to marry

 When it all happens, nobody wins

 Walk on, walk on alone

 Walk on, walk on, walk on alone
