Hard Travelling

[Verse]
I've been having some hard traveling, I thought you know
I've been hitting some hard traveling way down the road
I've been having some hard traveling, hard rambling
Hard gambling
I've been having some hard traveling, Lord
Well 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 dead enders, flat wheelers, kicking up cinders
I've been having some hard traveling, Lord
I've been hitting some hard rock man and I thought you know
I've been leaning on the pressured grill way down the road
Hammer flying, air hose sucking
Six feet of mud and a shovel mugging
I've been having some hard traveling, Lord
Well I've been laying in a hard rock jail I thought you know
I've been laying there ninety days way down the road
And a mean old judge said to me it's ninety days for vagrancy
And I've been having some hard traveling Lord
I've been working at Pittsburgh Steel I thought you know
I've been dumping that red hot slag way down the road
I've been blasting, I've been firing, I've been a pouring that red hot iron
And I've been a having some hard traveling, Lord
I've been hitting some hard harvest and I thought you know
North Dakota to Kansas City way down the road
Cutting that wheat and stacking that hay
And trying to make 'bout a dollar a day
And I've been a having some hard traveling, Lord
Well I've been working on Lincoln Highway I thought you know
I've been hitching on 66 way down the road
Heavy load and worried mind looking for a woman that's hard to find
And I've been havin' some hard travelin', Lord
