Hard Travelin' Lyrics - Friends Of Mine - Ramblin' Jack Elliott

I've been havin' some hard travelin', I thought you know 

I've been hittin' some hard travelin' way down the road 

I've been havin' some hard travelin', hard ramblin', hard gamblin' 

I've been havin' some hard travelin', Lord 

Well I've been ridin' them fast rattlers, I thought you know 

I've been ridin' them blind passengers way down the road 

I've been ridin' them dead enders, flat wheelers, kickin' up cinders 

I've been havin' some hard travelin', Lord 

I've been hittin' some hard rock man and I thought you know 

I've been leanin' on the pressured grill way down the road 

Hammer flyin', air hose suckin' 

Six feet of mud and a shovel muggin' 

I've been havin' some hard travelin', Lord 

Well I've been layin' in a hard rock jail I thought you know 

I've been layin' 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 havin' some hard travelin' Lord 

I've been workin' at Pittsburgh Steel I thought you know 

I've been dumpin' that red hot slag way down the road 

I've been blastin', I've been firin', I've been a pourin' that red hot iron 

And I've been a havin' some hard travelin', Lord 

I've been hittin' some hard harvest and I thought you know 

North Dakota to Kansas City way down the road 

Cuttin' that wheat and stackin' that hay 

And tryin' to make 'bout a dollar a day 

And I've been a havin' some hard travelin', Lord 

Well I've been workin' on Lincoln Highway I thought you know 

I've been hitchin' on 66 way down the road 

Heavy load and worried mind lookin' for a woman that's hard to find 

And I've been havin' some hard travelin', Lord
