Hard Road to Travel

I’m gonna sing you a good ol' song
A song that’s true for certain
In this life, you can’t get by
Without goin' through a little bitta hurtin'
Pull up your bootstraps, roll up your sleeves
Life is a hard road to travel
Pull up your bootstraps, roll up your sleeves
Life is a hard road to travel I believe
It’ll rain forty days, it’ll rain forty nights
And you’re never even gonna see the sunshine
On the 41st day when the clouds go away
You better be ready with a punchline
Pull up your bootstraps, roll up your sleeves
Life is a hard road to travel
Pull up your bootstraps, roll up your sleeves
Life is a hard road to travel I believe
The road ahead is a dusty one
Now, I’m just tryin' to be truthful
But there’s a chance indeed, if you plant a seed
Your path will be much more fruitful
Pull up your bootstraps, roll up your sleeves
Life is a hard road to travel
Pull up your bootstraps, roll up your sleeves
Life is a hard road to travel I believe
