I took a walk down a country road   I know this might sound dumb maybe   But I was all alone      If you think that I'm going somewhere   Take my hand I'll lead you there   Don't want to have to call you up from a pay phone      It's a long and lonely road, it's a long and lonely road   If you don't like it then you don't take it   It's a long and lonely road      I took a walk down a country road   I know this might sound dumb maybe   But I was all alone      If you think that I'm going somewhere   Take my hand I'll lead you there   Don't want to have to call you up from a pay phone      It's a long and lonely road, it's a long and lonely road   If you don't like it then please don't take it   It's a long and lonely road      I know it is so hard for you and I to be apart   I'm slowly fading, you're my lady   That keeps me moving on, on      It's a long and lonely road, it's a long and lonely road   If you don't like it then you don't take it   It's a long and lonely road, it's a long and lonely road   If you don't like it then you don't take it      Honest promise you will be missed
