goin' on down the road - paul clayton lyrics

Loading...

i’m a decent working fella
i’ve a story i will tell ya
of how i met this pretty girl and all the things that then befell me

chorus:
love, fare thee well
i’m goin’ on down the road
i’m goin’ on down the road
there’s better times behind me, boys, and better times before

it was on a sunday mornin’
i met her without warnin’
and i walked her home from church that day and oh, my love, she was a darlin’

chorus

well, her parents didn’t like me
and they tried to make her slight me
her daddy, he talked mean to me and her mother tried to aggravate me

chorus

her mother said, “don’t wrong me
don’t take my daughter from me
or from sorrow i’ll be forced to die and after death my ghost will haunt thee.”

chorus

so i left that girl a-sighin’
forlornly once for trying
and i opened up another quart and walked on down to maggie riley’s

love, fare thee well
i’m goin’ on down the road
i’m goin’ on down the road
there’s better times behind me, boys, and better times before
