Let's walk a that-a-way
Not a this-a-way
That-a-way we can be alone
'taint fair throwin' our chance to kiss away
This-a-way only leads to home

Notice that we're coming to the crossroads
Should we turn to left or right
Mother is a-rockin' and awaitin'
But it's such a lovely night

Let's walk a that-a-way
Not a this-a-way
That-a-way we can be alone
'taint fair throwin' our chance to kiss away
This-a-way only leads to home

But don't you think the valley road is shorter
We could save about a mile
Now and then the short road can be longer
If you linger for a while

Let's walk a that-a-way
Not a this-a-way
That-a-way we can be alone
'taint fair throwin' our chance to kiss away
This-a-way only leads to home

Can't you see the night is just beginning
And the moonlight weaves a spell
We can take the road among the daisies
You know daisies never tell

Let's walk a that-a-way
Not a this-a-way
That-a-way we can be alone
'taint fair throwin' our chance to kiss away
This-a-way only leads to home

I got an awful lot of tender words to whisper
Little old words like I love you
Everything you say is so convincing
Guess that's what we ought to do

Let's walk a that-a-way
Not a this-a-way
That-a-way we can be alone
'taint fair throwin' our chance to kiss away
This-a-way only leads to home

Leads to home

That-a-way only leads to home
