Hard times behind me hard times to come
from the glory of the seekers to the mountains on the moon
blue skies and aeroplanes and white clouds floating by
you know it gives me such a thrill when you look me in the eye
Hard times behind me hard times to come yeah
Rolling thunder the driving rain
big ole 18 wheeler barrelling down the lane
90 miles to Haverstraw before I could ease my pain
through the foothills of Jersey my truck is makin headway
