True Love Travels on a Gravel Road - Percy Sledge

How many girls choose cotton dress worlds

When they could have satins and lace

And stand by her man, never once letting shade touch her face

How many hearts could live through all the winters

We’ve known and still not be cold

True love travels on a gravel road

Love is a stranger and hearts are in danger

All through streets paved with gold

For true love travels on a gravel road

Down through the years we’ve had hard times and tears

But they only helped our love grow

And we’ll stay together no matter how strong the wind blows

Not once have I seen your blue eyes filled with envy

Or stray from the one that you hold

Oh true love travels on a gravel road

Love is a stranger and hearts are in danger

All through streets paved with gold

For true love travels on a gravel road

Yeah, true love travels on a gravel road.

Mmmm

True love travels on a gravel road

True love travels on a gravel road
