Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - The Valley Road lyrics

While no one was looking on the old plantation

He took her all the way down the long valley road

They sent her away not too much later

Left him walking down the old valley road.

Sometimes I lead, sometimes I follow

This time I'll go where she wants me to go

She said maybe today, maybe tomorrow

Go deep in the woods down the long valley road

Walk on walk on little doll walk

Walkon little doll

Out in the hall they were talkin' in a whisper

Everybody noticed she was gone a while

Somebody said she was gone to her sister's

Everyone knew what they were talkin' about.

While no one was looking on the old plantation

He showed her what they do down the long valley road

Came back around like nothin' really happened

Left him standing on the old valley road

Walk on walk on little doll walk on

Walk on little doll

Walk on, walk on the valley road

Standing like a stone on the old plantation

Rich old man wouldn't ever let him in

Good enough to hire, not good enough to marry

When it all happens, nobody wins

Walk on walk on little doll walk on

Walkon little doll etc
