Lyrics
You’re walkin’ down a long lonely road
There’s no good end to where you’re goin’
One of these days you’re gonna find yourself alone
Ain’t no good man gonna make you a home
You promised to me that you’d always be true
You vowed that cheatin’s one thing you’d never do
Now I just found out from a good friend of mine
That you’ve been lyin’ to me all the time, all the time
It’s a long, lonely road, no good end to where you’re goin’
You traded true love for a long, lonely road
I don’t care if I ever see you again
It hurts to see you now with your new friend
Someday you’re gonna find out just what it’s like
The grass ain’t always greener on the other side
Don’t come runnin’ back and hope to find
Me waitin’ for you at the end of the line
I won’t be here girl I’ll be everywhere
Who loves you baby now, well, I don’t care, I don’t care
It’s a long, lonely road, no good end to where you’re goin’
You traded true love for a long, lonely road
You’re walkin’ down a long lonely road
There’s no good end to where you’re goin’
One of these days you’re gonna find yourself alone
Ain’t no good man gonna make you a home
You’re walkin’ down a long lonely road, lonely road
It’s a long, lonely road, no good end to where you’re goin’
You traded true love for a long, lonely road
It’s a long, lonely road, no good end to where you’re goin’
You traded true love for a long, lonely road
