Walkin' down the hard road, done wore the soles off of my shoes Walkin' down the hard road, done wore the soles off of my shoes My clothes are ragged and I got those hard road blues Have you ever lay down at night, thinkin' about your brown? Have you ever lay down at night, thinkin' about your brown? And get the hard road blues, and ramble from town to town Bridge washed out, wires all down My gal done quit me, I'm gonna leave this town I'm gon' put some wheels on my boogiein' shoes Gonna roll back to my baby, to get rid of these hard road blues I lay down last night, a thousand things on my mind I lay down last night, a thousand things on my mind Gonna walk these hard roads, just to cure my low-down mind Come here baby, gimme your right hand Come here baby, gimme your right hand Walkin' these hard roads, gonna drive me insane
