Walk down that lonesome road

All by yourself

Don't turn your head back over your shoulder

And only stop to rest yourself

When the silver moon is shining high above the trees

If I had stopped to listen once or twice

If I had closed my mouth and opened my eyes

If I had cooled my head and warmed my heart

I'll not be on this road tonight

Carry on

Never mind feeling sorry for yourself

It doesn't save you from your troubled mind

Walk down that lonesome road

All by yourself

Don't turn your head back over your shoulder

And only stop to rest yourself

When the silver moon is shining high above the trees
