valley of tears

Solomon Burke

I've been riding high, but i don't know why everybody wants to send me down to the valley of tears.
It's a sunny day and i'm on my way but everybody wants to send me down to the valley of tears.

People stand in line just to hear me cry.
I wanna know the other side
but everyone i choose only brings bad news.
Everybody wants to send me down to the valley of tears.
People stand in line just to hear me cry.
I wanna know what's on the other side.

I've been riding high, but i don't know why cause everybody wants to send me down to the valley of tears.
It's a sunny bright day and i'm on my way but everybody wants to send me down to the valley of tears.
