The Valley Road

Sometimes I lead, sometimes I follow
 This time I'll go where she wants me to go
 She said maybe today, maybe tomorrow
 Deep in the woods down the low valley road
 While no one was lookin' 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 alone
 Walk on, walk on
 Walk on alone, alone
 Out in the hall, they were talking in a whisper
 Everybody noticed she was gone awhile
 Somebody said she's gone to her sister's
 Everybody knew what they were talking about
 Whoa, while no one was lookin' 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 alone
 Walk on, walk on
 Walk on, walk on, on the valley road
 ♪
 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, walk on alone
 Walk on, walk on
 Walk on, walk on alone, alone
