Look down that long old lonesome road.
Look down that long old lonesome road.
My poor feet is tired but still I've got to go.
There's no train to my hometown, and there ain't but one way to go.
There's no train to my hometown, there ain't but one way to go.
There's mile after mile traveling down that long old muddy road.
There ain't but one thing that worries me night and day.
There ain't but one thing worries me night and day.
There's a place called Death Valley, and it's just halfway.
I asked the Lord to please help me, please to see me through.
Mother I'm tryin' to make my way back home to you.
Only your prayers can help me, 'cause my feet can't see me through.
I've been travelin' this lonely road, night after night and day after day.
I've been travelin' this lonely road, night after night and day after day.
If your prayers don't help me, you know I've died tryin' to make my way.
