Look down, look down that lonesome road
Before you travel on
Look up, look up and face your maker
'Fore Gabriel blows his horn

Weary totin' such a load
Stretchin' down that lonesome road
Look down, look down that lonesome road
Before you travel on

Weary totin' such a load
Stretchin' down that lonesome old road
Look down, look down that lonesome road
Before you travel on

Look down, look down that lonesome road
Before you travel on
Before you travel on
Look down that lonesome road
