In The Valley Back Home

Passing through Kentucky on my way back home
Afraid me up for something I swore I hadn't done
And I wrote my old folks what went on
Then they send without a john to get me home

He put me in a prison but he came to set me free
On the run he said: "You're gonna coming home with me"
We travelled south, day and night
Now there's only one more night to get me home

In the valley cross the river, in the valley back home
In the valley cross the river back home
In the valley cross the river, in the valley back home
In the valley cross the river back home

We went up the mountains and the road was bad
Climbing and slipping, not a single word he said
Suddenly a thunderstorm came up that night
Rolling thunders walked the skies, I was scared

In the mountains near the valley, in the mountains near home
In the mountains near the valley, near home
In the mountains near the valley, in the mountains near home
In the mountains near the valley, near home

When the storm was over we started moving on
Then we reached the valley where I could see my home
So at last after all those many years
I was grateful that I got back home

In the valley cross the river, in the valley back home
In the valley cross the river back home
In the valley cross the river, in the valley back home
In the valley cross the river back home
