Listen,
here's my theme song, Hard Travelin'.
I'm doing it most of the time.
I've been hitting some hard traveling,
I thought you know.
I've been hitting some hard traveling way down the road.
I've been hitting some hard traveling,
a hard rambling, a hard gambling.
I've been hitting some hard traveling, Lord.
I've been riding them fast rattlers,
I thought you know.
I've been riding them blind passengers way down the road.
I've been riding them flat wheelers,
dead enders,
kicking up cinders.
I've been hitting some hard traveling, Lord.
Well,
I've been hitting some hard rock mining,
I thought you know.
I've been leaning on a pressure drill way down the road.
To hammer flying air hose sucking six
feet of mud in a show bin mucking.
I've been having some hard traveling, Lord.
I've been working at Pittsburgh Steel,
I thought you know.
I've been dumping red hot * way down the road.
I've been blasting,
I've been firing,
I've been pouring red hot iron.
I've been having some hard traveling, Lord.
I've been laying in a hard rock jail,
I thought you know.
I've been laying out 90 days way down the road.
And a mean old judge said to me,
it's 90 days for vagrancy.
And I've been having some hard traveling, Lord.
I've been having some hard harvesting,
I thought you know.
North Dakota to Kansas City way
down the road.
Cutting that wheat and stacking that hay,
trying to make about a
dollar a day.
And I've been having some hard traveling, Lord.
Well,
I've been walking that Lincoln Highway,
I thought you know.
I've been hitching on 66 way down the road.
A heavy load and a worried mind looking
for a woman that's hard to find.
I've been having some hard traveling, Lord.
