Well this road that I walk is a mighty lonely road
And this load that I bear is a mighty heavy load
And this song that I sing is a mighty lonely song
I had a true love but I've done her wrong
(He had a true love but he's done her wrong)
Well this road that I walk it has no end
And on this road I walk I have no friends
The people that I pass are people just like me
Doomed to forever walk this road of misery
(He had a true love but he's done her wrong)
(Now he walks this road of misery alone)
Well this road that I walk is for fools like you
This road that I walk you're gonna walk it too
Each step that you take rules you not very smart
You had a true love but you broke her heart
You had a true love but you done her wrong
Like me you must walk this road of misery alone
You had a true love but you done her wrong
Like me you must walk this road of misery alone
