Hard Road To Travel lyrics

(Jimmy Cliff)



I`ve got a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go

Said it`s a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go

But I can`t turn back, my heart is fixed

My mind`s made up, I`ll never stop

My faith will see, see me through



Let me tell you

I`m all alone, this lonesome road I roam

I`ve got no love to call my very own

Oh the river gets deeper, the hills get steeper

And the pain gets deeper every day, yeah



I`ve got a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go

Said it`s a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go

But I can`t turn back, my heart is fixed

My mind`s made up, I`ll never stop

My faith will see, see me through



Aah, oh oh

Aah, oh oh - one more thing



I dream of a home far beyond the sea

Where there is love and peace and joy for me

Oh, in my eyes I see troubles and dangers for me

But destiny where it leads me I must go, hey



I`ve got a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go

Said it`s a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go

But I can`t turn back, my heart is fixed

My mind`s made up, I`ll never stop

My faith will see, see me through



Aah, oh oh - no, help me somebody

Aah, oh oh - somebody please, help me right now
