She spent the last of her teenage years
At home alone with her worst fears
When the telegraph came, she did not know who to blame
<i>[Chorus:]</i>
She walks alone <i>[x9]</i>
The War that took her husband's life
It made a widow of his wife
The world came crashing in, she made a haunt to rest with him
<i>[Chorus]</i>
She walks alone!
She leaves the flowers on his grave
The last one we forgot to save
A note of long regrets, the pension checks are all she gets
<i>[Chorus]</i>
