It's mighty dark for me to travel

For my sweetheart she is gone

The road is rough and filled with gravel

But I must journey on and on



To me she was a little angel

Sent down to me from God above

And on the day that I first met her

Then I told her of my love



Many a night we strolled together

Talking of our love so fair

My love for her will never vanish

Oh I know I'll meet her there



Traveling down this lonesome highway

Thinking of my love who's gone

Knowing soon we'll be together

She's the only love I've known
