Well, you gotta walk that lonesome valley
You got to walk all by yourself
Ain't nobody else can walk it for you
You got to walk that lonesome valley by yourself

Well, some say John, he was a Baptist
Some say John, he was a Jew
I say John, just like the bible
That John, John, he was a preacher too

Sayin', you gotta walk that lonesome valley
You got to walk all by yourself
Ain't nobody else can walk it for you
You got to walk that lonesome valley by yourself

Well, there's a road that leads to glory
[?] so far away
Ain't nobody else can walk it for you
All they can do is part your way

Well, you gotta walk that lonesome valley
You got to walk it all by yourself
There ain't nobody else can walk it for you
You got to walk ...
You got to walk ...
You got to walk that lonesome valley by yourself
