Chorus:
I been doin' some hard travelin'. I thought you knowed. I been
doin' some hard travelin', way down the road.
I been doin' some hard travelin', hard ramblin', hard gamblin'.
I been doin' some hard travelin', Lord.
I been workin' in a hard rock tunnel. I thought you knowed. I
been leanin' on a pressure drill, way down the road.
Hammer flyin', air hose suckin', six feet of mud, I sure been
muckin', I been doin' some hard travelin', Lord.
(Chorus)
I been workin' the Pittsburg steel. I thought you knowed. I been
workin' that red-hot slag, way down the road.
I been a-blastin'. I been a-firin'. I been a-duckin' that
red-hot fire. I been doin' some hard travelin', Lord.
(Chorus)
Well, I've been hittin' that Lincoln highway. I thought you
knowed. I been hittin' that sixty-six, way down the road.
Well, a heavy load and a worried mind, I a-lookin' for a woman
that is hard to find. I been doin' some hard travelin', Lord.
(Chorus)
