To me she was my little angel
Sent down to me from God above
For on the day that I first met her
That I told her of my love
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
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
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
Many a night we strolled together
Talking of our love so fair
My love for her will never vanish
For I know I'll meet her there
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
