"Lonesome Valley" Lyrics

You gotta walk that lonesome valley
You gotta go there by yourself
There's no one else gonna go there for you
You gotta go there by yourself.

Now my mama said, when she was dying
Son, oh son, you've left alone
Yes, put your trust alone in Jesus
And he will lead you safely home.

You gotta walk that lonesome valley
You gotta go there by yourself
There's no one else gonna go there for you
You gotta go there by yourself.

--- Instrumental ---

Some folks say John was the baptist
Others say it wasn't true
But the Holy Bible tells us
That he was a preacher, too.

You gotta walk that lonesome valley
You gotta go there by yourself
There's no one else gonna go there for you
You gotta go there by yourself...
