I watched you walk out from the world before   And nothin' asked you to be much more   Than just a hand full of dust   Oh, lonesome valley, lonesome valley   Oh, lonesome valley, lonesome valley      Out here the ghost wears the feathered crown   Of blues and the sickle moons   To watch over the lost horizon   Oh, the lonesome valley, the lonesome valley   Oh, through the lonesome valley, the lonesome valley      Now I'm not worried about headin' back   I will be punished by a civil debt   If I've done enough but not my best      I turned my pain into a simple plan   Harmony onward friend   Draggin' myself out again   Oh, through the lonesome valley, the lonesome valley   Oh, through the lonesome valley, the lonesome valley      Now let the wolf judge me as I stand   Harmony onward friend   Until I see that old star again   High over the lonesome valley   High over the lonesome valley
