"It's Mighty Dark to Travel" Lyrics

(Bill Monroe)

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.

--- Instrumental ---

To me she was a little angel
Sent down to me from God above
It was on that day that I first met her
For I told her of her 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.

--- Instrumental ---

Many a night we'd stroll 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.

--- Instrumental ---

Travelin' down this lonesome highway
Thinking of my love at home
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.

--- Instrumental ---

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...
