Sometimes I lead
sometimes I follow
This time I'll go where she wants me to go.
She said niaybe 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 alone
Walk on
walk on
walk on
walk on 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
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 alone
Walk on
walk on
walk on
walk on
walk 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
walk on
walk on.
