Bill Monroe

Highway of Sorrow
I once had a darling wife kind, true and sweetLife was so bright and gay everything completeBut I fell for another who led my life astraySo I'll live in sorrow till my dying dayDown the highway of sorrow I'm traveling aloneI've lost all my true friends I've lost a happy homeI'm heading for destruction I'm on the wrong trackDown the highway of sorrow there's no turning backI went back to my darling I got down on my kneesI begged her with tear rimmed eyes to give my poor heart easeBut she was hurt so deeply she could not forgiveSo I'll live in sorrow as I long as I live Aus Songtexte Mania
