Is the road uphill all the way?
Will the journey take the whole long day?
From morn to night, my friend.
Will there be a resting place?
A roof when the night begins.
Will the darkness hide it from my face?
No, you cannot miss that end.
Well, I meet other travelers there,
Will they hear me knocking?
They won't leave you standing at that door
Well, I find comfort, sore and weak
The work keeps you fine with some
Are there beds for me and all who seek?
Yes, beds for all who come
But it's uphill all the way
And the journey's gonna take all day
And is there room at the table there?
Perhaps a glass to ease our care
Now will they take me as I am?
And is there mercy for the damned?
But it's uphill all the way
And the journey's gonna take all day
Is the road uphill all the way
Will the journey take a whole long day?
From morn to night, my friend
Will there be a resting place?
A roof when the night begins
Will the darkness hide from my face?
No, you cannot miss that end
No, you cannot miss that end you
