The Valley Road Lyrics By Bruce Hornsby The Range

    sometimes i lead sometimes i follow
    this time i’ll go where she wants me to go
    she said maybe today maybe tomorrow
    deep in the woods down the low valley road

    while no one was lookin’ on the old plantation
    he took her all the way down the long valley road
    they sent her away not too much later
    and left him walking down the old valley road
    walk on
    walk on walk on alone
    walk on walk on
    walk on alone alone

    out in the hall they were talking in a whisper
    everybody noticed she was gone awhile
    somebody said she’s gone to her sister’s
    everybody knew what they were talking about

    whoa while no one was lookin’ on the old plantation
    he showed her what they do down the long valley road
    she came back around like nothing really happened
    and left him standing on the old valley road
    walk on
    walk on walk on alone
    walk on walk on
    walk on walk on on the valley road

    standing like a stone on the old plantation
    the rich old man would have never let him in
    good enough to hire not good enough to marry
    when it all happens nobody wins
    walk on
    walk on walk on alone
    walk on walk on
    walk on walk on alone alone
