Thank you. Why wouldn't it?

I guess "lead the way" is an idiom and you can't change the parts of it. If you want people to follow you, you "lead the way" -- you don't "lead way" or "lead a way" or "lead the direction" or anything else.

Thank you.

Then when would you use 'lead way'? Can you give me a few sentences and its meaning in them?

I wouldn't, except possibly in a newspaper headline.

Or in a sentence where the two words were adjacent, but not a phrase: "The path lead way past the cabin, all the way to the lake."
