Hank Snow - I'll Ride Back to Lonesome Valley lyrics

My troublin' mind tonight is drifting

To a cottage far away

And as restless cattle wander

I can hear a sweet voice say.

"You are leaving, Jack, your darling

With a lonesome broken heart

But I'll wait in Lonesome Valley

Tho' we may be far apart."

Yes, so well do I remember

Of the night we say goodbye

There were teardrops on your cheeks, dear

As I left your loving side.

But when round up time is over

Wheter skies are dark or fair

I'll ride back to Lonesome Valley

For I know I'll find you there.

You are my queen of Lonesome Valley

By your side I know no care

Nights out on the lonesome prairie

You have been my guiding star.

Soon my faithful paint I'll saddle

And beneath the western sky

I'll ride back to Lonesome Valley

And you'll be my blushing bride...
