Lyrics

LONG HARD ROAD

Upon reflecting, my years near thirty
I have had every job, some good some dirty
Once I worked the low lands, twice I tended bar
I pumped gas in Abelene, I wore a bow-tie parking cars
On the long hard road

Had a gig on a cruise ship, bound lor tropic shores
i came back home last summer a little wiser, burnt and poor
I met a maharajah, with the secrets of the earth
He said I'll share them with you, but you gotta pay me first
It's a long hard road

Busted and disgusted, I hitched my way out west
Sold my only cowboy hat, swapped my leather vest
The train that I kept riding, makes infrequent stops
Most 01 the lolks who get on board can't wait to get off
Of the long hard road
