Long Hard Road Songtext
von Wendell Kimbrough

There′s a long hard road ahead of me
Full of twists and turns in places I can't see
But if I′m to reach the valley where the grass is growing green
There's a long hard road ahead of me

I am lying in a place where I can't sleep
Every way I turn my body, I′m still beat
And the longer that I stay here, the more I know I need
To take the long hard road ahead of me


I have looked out for a path that I might find
Just an easy way to walk and change my mind
But the way from which I waver is the only path I see
There′s a long hard road ahead of me

There's a pretty girl waiting for me there
She′s a jewel in a crown that any king would want to wear
But she's locked up in a tower by some hands that I can′t see
There's a long hard road ahead of me

There′s a destination worth the weary way
Where the one I love will look at me and say
Thank you for the time you spent fighting to be free
On the long hard road, you took the long hard road
And you made it to the place you want to be
