How many girls choose cotton-dress world When they could have satins and lace? To stand by her man through good times and bad Still keep a smile on her face? How many hearts would feel the winter's wind blow And still not turn cold?
True love travels on a gravel road.
Love is a stranger and hearts are in danger On smooth streets paved with gold, But true love travels on a gravel road.
Down through the years We've had hard times and tears, But it only helps our love grow. And we'll stay together No matter how strong the wind blow.
Not once have I seen Your blue eyes fill with envy And stray from the one that you hold. True love travels on a gravel road.
Love is a stranger and hearts still in danger On smooth streets paved with gold, But true love travels on a gravel road.
