Lyrics
Lonesome Valley
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well, you got to walk that lonesome valley
You got to walk it by yourselves
Nobody else can walk it for you
You got to walk it by yourselves
Now mother walked that lonesome valley
She had to walk it by herself
Cause nobody else could walk it for her
She had to walk it by herself
Now father walked that lonesome valley
He had to walk it by himself
Nobody else could walk it for him
He had to walk it by himself
Now John, they say, he was a Baptist
While others say, he was a Jew
But the holy bible plainly tells you
Oh, that he was a preacher too
Yeah, you got to walk that lonesome valley
You got to walk it by yourselves
Ain't nobody else gonna go there for you
You got to go there by yourselves
Yeah, we got to walk that lonesome valley
We got to walk it by ourselves (by ourselves)
Cause nobody else (nobody else) can walk it for us
We got to walk it by ourselves
Yeah, we got to walk (we got to walk)
That lonesome valley (that lonesome valley)
We got to walk (we got to walk) it by ourselves (by ourselves)
Lord, nobody else (nobody else) can walk it for us
(Can walk it for you)
We got to walk (we got to walk) it by ourselves
Yeah, we got to walk (we got to walk) it by ourselves
