It's a Rough Old Road To Travel lyrics

It's a rough old road to travel it's a mighty tough row to hoe It's a rough old road to travel and that is why I'm traveling slow I've walked the road at nighttime passed houses full of light I've watched a young man bringing his girl home safe at night And I felt that lonesome feeling as he kissed her at her door And oh the all old mem'ries only make me miss you more It's a rough old road to travel... I've heard the night owl calling from a far off lonely hill And I've heard him find his answer in a lonely whippoorwill But I've never known a feeling that can leave you half as blue As the kind you get from loving something that don't love you It's a rough old road to travel... That is why I'm traveling slow
