How many girls choose cotton dress worlds
When they could have satins and lace
Stand by her man through good times and bad
And still keep a smile on her face

And how many hearts
Could face the winters we've known
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

True love travels on a gravel road

Down through the years
We've had hard times and tears
But it only makes our love grow
And we'll stay together no matter how hard the wind blows

Not once have I seen your blue eyes fill with envy
Or stray from the warmth that they hold

True love travels on a gravel road

Now love is a stranger and hearts still in danger
On smooth streets paved with gold

True love travels on a gravel road

True love travels on a gravel road
True love travels on a gravel road
True love travels on a gravel road
True love travels on a gravel road

True love travels on a gravel road
True love travels on a gravel road
True love travels on a gravel road
