Jordan Is A Hard Road To Travel

I'm a-gonna sing you a brand new song It is all the truth for certain We can't live high if we get by And get on the other side of Jordan Oh, pull off your overcoat and roll up your sleeves Jordan is a hard road to travel Pull off your overcoat and roll up your sleeves Jordan is a hard road to travel, I believe The public schools and the highways Are raisin' quite an alarm Get a country man educated just a little And he ain't a-gonna work on the farm Oh, pull off your overcoat and roll up your sleeves Jordan is a hard road to travel Pull off your overcoat and roll up your sleeves Jordan is a hard road to travel, I believe I don't know, but I believe I'm right The auto's ruined the country Let's go back to the horse and buggy And try to save some money Oh, pull off your overcoat and roll up your sleeves Jordan is a hard road to travel Pull off your overcoat and roll up your sleeves Jordan is a hard road to travel, I believe I know a man that's an evangelist The tabernacle's always full People will come from miles around Just to hear him shoot the bull Oh, pull off your overcoat and roll up your sleeves Jordan is a hard road to travel Pull off your overcoat and roll up your sleeves Jordan is a hard road to travel I believe You may talk about your evangelists You may talk about Mr Ford too With Henry really shakin' more hell out of folks Than all of the evangelists do Oh, pull off your overcoat and roll up your sleeves Jordan is a hard road to travel Pull off your overcoat and roll up your sleeves Jordan is a hard road to travel, I believe It rained 40 nights, but it rained 40 days Gonna rain on the Allegheny Mountains Gonna rain 40 horses and Dominick mules Gonna take us on the other side of Jordan
