Lyrics:
I've been havin' some hard travelin', I thought you knowed
I've been havin' some hard travelin', way down the road
I've been havin' some hard travelin', hard ramblin', hard gamblin'
I've been in some hard travelin', Lord
I've been ridin' them fast rattlers, I thought you knowed
I've been ridin' them flat wheelers, way down the road
I've been ridin' them dead-enders, blind passengers, kickin' up cinders
I've been havin' some hard travelin', Lord
Well, I've been hittin' some hard-rock minin', I thought you knowed
I've been leanin' on a pressure drill, way down the road
Hammer flyin', air-hole suckin', six foot of mud and sure been a-muckin'
And I've been havin' some hard travelin', Lord
Well, I've been hittin' some hard harvestin', I thought you knowed
North Dakota to Kansas City, way down the road
Cuttin' that wheat, a-stackin' that hay, and tryin' make about a dollar a day
And I've been havin' some hard travelin', Lord
I've been workin' that Pittsburgh steel, I thought you knowed
I've been pourin' red-hot slag, way down the road
I've been blastin', I've been firin', and I've been pourin' red-hot iron
And I've been havin' some hard travelin', Lord
