Charley Crockett - Solitary Road

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1946940
Verse 1
I'd be glad to tell you the story
'Bout a solitary road
You can't take nobody with you
And you ain't comin' back if you go

It's a highway teamin' with blackjack
On every corner, young Jessabelles
Well, they say it can lead to salvation
But you won't be able to tell

Chorus
Cause it's a solitary road

Verse 2
I was only a wanderer
A lonely child of circumstance
When I heard that nightingale calling me
And it flew right into my hand

Well, it told me they'd rise up against me
As it turned out, this was the case
I saw jackals roamin' the valleys
Drifters all over the place

Chorus
See, it's a solitary road
See Charley Crockett LiveGet tickets as low as $34 Verse 3
A kingdom lay high on the mountain
I could see it through rain and snow
Many had fallen in fields beside me
As I crossed over every road

When I reached those gates of the city
I was tremblin', I have to confess
Eyes of judgment lay heavy upon me
The red sun hung low in the west

Chorus
On the solitary road
