Down In The Valley Lyrics
I wish I was a slave to an age-old trade
Like ridin’ around on railcars and workin’ long days
Lord have mercy on my rough and rowdy ways
Lord have mercy on my rough and rowdy ways
…………….*…………….
Call it one drink too many
Call it pride of a man
But it don’t make no difference if you sit or you stand
‘Cause they both end in trouble and start with a grin
Yeah they both end in trouble and start with a grin
…………….*…………….
We do it over and over and over again
We do it over and over and over again
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
I know there’s California, Oklahoma
And all of the places I ain’t ever been to but
Down in the valley with
Whiskey rivers
These are the places you will find me hidin’
These are the places I will always go
These are the places I will always go
…………….*…………….
I am on my way
I am on my way
I am on my way back to where I started
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
One more for the stars and their eyes in the walls
I hail your face and then, I saw you standing out
…………….*…………….
I saw your face in the crowd and you came out
You saw me crossing the valley and you came in
Look at the sign on the door and it reads to me
Just like the grass and the sign when you walked in
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
I am on my way
I am on my way
I am on my way back to where I started
…………….*…………….
California, Oklahoma
And all of the places I ain’t ever been to but
Down in the valley with
Whiskey rivers
These are the places you will find me hidin’
These are the places I will always go
These are the places I will always go
…………….*…………….
So I wish I was a slave to an age-old trade
Lord have mercy on my rough and rowdy ways
I wish I was a slave to an age-old trade
Like ridin’ around on railcars and workin’ long days
Lord have mercy on my rough and rowdy ways
Lord have mercy on my rough and rowdy ways
Call it one drink too many
Call it pride of a man
But it don’t make no difference if you sit or you stand
Cause they both end in trouble and start with a grin
Yeah they both end in trouble and start with a grin
We do it over and over and over again
We do it over and over and over again
Oh -oh -oh -oh (slow) (straight strumming)
Oh -oh -oh -oh (build)
Oh -oh -oh -oh
I know there’s California, Oklahoma
And all of the places I ain’t ever been to but
Down in the valley with
Whiskey rivers
These are the places you will find me hidin’
These are the places I will always go (not slow)
These are the places I will always go (not slow)
I am on my way (slow)
I am on my way (slow)
I am on my way back to where I started
Oh -oh -oh -oh (straight strumming)
Oh -oh -oh -oh (build) (continued in the background)
One more for the stars and the eyes of the walls
I hail your face, and then I saw you standing out
I saw your face in the crowd and you came out
You saw me crossing the valley and you came in
There was a sign on the door and it reads to me
Just like the grass and the sign when you walked in
Oh -oh -oh -oh (straight strumming)
Oh -oh -oh
I am on my way (slow)
I am on my way (slow)
I am on my way back to where I started
California, Oklahoma
And all of the places I ain’t ever been to but
Down in the valley with
Whiskey rivers
These are the places you will find me hidin’
These are the places I will always go (slow)
These are the places I will always go (slow)
So I wish I was a slave to an age-old trade
Lord have mercy on my rough and rowdy ways
