Lyrics:

When my mom and dad they told me
I'm just a fool
When I told them I was leaving home
Told them I was leaving school
In a couple days I found myself
Heading down a south bound road
With everything I owned strapped to my back
Yet I haven't learned
It's a hard road that I travel
Hard road that I travel
Hard road that I travel
Walk in that line
Yeah it's a hard, hard road
Down the line
Hey mom and dad, see I'm feeling good
Being a traveling man
'Cause I'm thinking what I'm doing and I'm doing it
Just as fast as I can
See nobody's hanging things around my neck
Or putting me in no
I got my guitar strapped to my back
I'm gonna play some rock and roll
It's a hard road that I travel
It's hard road that I travel
Hard road that I travel
Walk in the line
Yeah it's a hard, hard road
Walk in that line
Walk in that

I tell you mama
No one's hanging things around my neck
Or putting me in no
I got my strat on my back I got my radio
I'm living a life of rock and roll
It's a hard road that I travel
On this hard road that I travel
Hard road that I travel
It's mine, straight down the line
It's a hard, hard road
Down the line
(Hard road that I travel)
Traveling man (Hard road that I travel)
Doing what I want (Hard road that I travel)
As best I can
They get it (Hard road that I travel)
Saved my soul (Hard road that I travel)
Sweet rock and roll
Oh, woah
Yeah, ah
Oh
Oh, oh
It's mine
Ooh
Walking the line
Yeah the line
Oh
(Hard road that I travel)
(Hard road that I travel)
(Hard road that I travel)
(Hard road that I travel)
(Hard road that I travel)
(Hard road that I travel)
