I'm traveling down this lonesome road, oh, how I hate to go

The wind and storms are raging high and it's awful cold

My mind drifts back to you, sweetheart, and I love you so

Now you've gone and left me here to travel this lonesome road



I remember dear, not long ago, you said you'd be my own

I never thought you'd go away and leave me all alone

The kind of love you had for me, I find sweetheart, grows cold

For now you've gone and left me here to travel this lonesome road



I'm traveling down this lonesome road, oh, how I hate to go

The wind and storms are raging high and it's awful cold

My mind drifts back to you, sweetheart, and I love you so

Now you've gone and left me here to travel this lonesome road



All I do is roam around and look for you, my dear

I know I'll search ten thousand miles, oh, how I need you, dear

You broke my heart, you left me here, now I'm growing old

Why did you go and leave me here to travel this lonesome road?



I'm traveling down this lonesome road, oh, how I hate to go

The wind and storms are raging high and it's awful cold

My mind drifts back to you, sweetheart, and I love you so

Now you've gone and left me here to travel this lonesome road
