Lonesome Valley 2003

(album: Carter Girl - 2014)

You gotta walk that lonesome valley
You gotta walk it by yourself
Nobody here can walk it for you
You gotta walk it by yourself

Some people say that John was a Baptist
Some folks say he was a Jew
But your holy scripture tells you
That he was a preacher too

Daniel was a Bible hero
Was a prophet brave and true
In a den of hungry lions
Proved what faith can do for you

There's a road that leads to glory
Through a valley far away
Nobody else can walk it for you
They can only point the way

Mamma and daddy loves you dearly
Sister does and brother, too
They may beg you to go with them
But they cannot go for you

I'm gonna walk that lonesome valley
I'm gonna walk it by myself
Don't want to nobody to walk it for me
I'm gonna walk it by myself
