Lonesome Valley Lyrics


You gotta walk that lonesome valley
And you gotta walk, walk it by yourself
Nobody here can walk it for you
You gotta walk, walk it by yourselfJesus walked this lonesome valley
And He had to walk it by Himself
Nobody else could walk it for Him
He had to walk, walk it by HimselfOh, you gotta walk that lonesome valley
Oh, you gotta go there by yourself
Nobody else can walk it for you
You gotta walk, walk it by yourselfYou must go and stand your trials
You have to stand it by yourself
Nobody else can stand it for you
You have to stand it by yourselfOh, you gotta walk that lonesome valley
Oh, you gotta walk it by yourself
Nobody else is gonna walk it for you
You gotta walk, walk it by yourselfSome folks say that old John was a baptist
Some folks say he was a Jew
But the Bible claim, it plainly tells us

That old Johnny was a preacher, tooOh, you gotta walk that lonesome valley
Yeah, you gotta walk it by yourself
Nobody here is gonna walk it for you
You gotta walk, walk it by yourselfYou gotta walk that lonesome valley
You gotta walk it by yourself
Nobody here is gonna walk it for you
You gotta walk, walk it by yourself

John Fahey (February 28, 1939–February 22, 2001) combined American folk, blues, Indian raga, 20th century modernism and European classical into a musical gestalt he called "American Primitive", establishing a form of classical music ("concert music" as he conceptualized it) for solo steel-string acoustic guitar with the emotive and compositional complexity of kindred classical forms from Arabic, Persian, Turkic, Indic, Malian and other traditions. His efforts to elevate his instrument in this way ran in parallel to his British counterparts like Davey Graham and John Renbourn.
