Down life's rocky road

Walk bold, Hard

(No Chords)
You know when I was a boy
Folks used to say to me
"Slow down Dewey, don't walk so hard"
And I used to tell them
Life's a race, and I'm in it to win it
And I'll walk as damn hard as I please
How do I walk boys?
F G D
Haaarrd!
[Chorus]
D G D
When I meet my maker on my dying day
C F C
Gonna look him in the eye and by God I'll say

I took it in the face and walked as hard as I could
