From the recording The Candidates From New York

Washington is a Hard Road to Travel
Air: Jordan is a Hard Road to Travel

"Jordan is a Hard Road to Travel" is one of Dan Emmett's most memorable songs. It has been used many times in America's history, including songs for Abraham Lincoln in the 1864 election ("The Union is a Hard Road to Trabbel"), which was recorded on the album Abraham Lincoln and the 1864 Election. The tune has also been used in the song "Richmond is a Hard Road to Travel," a song that outlines the union army’s struggles through the campaign to take Richmond during the Civil War. This version is an anti-Hillary Clinton song that outlines her struggles in her political career.

Lyrics

I’m going to sing a song, about the candidate that’s wrong
You will see how we all will be in trouble
Hillary’s her name, nominee is her game
And she’s going to turn this country into rubble.

She has done quite enough of the damaging kind of stuff
Her history is something strange to unravel
But let’s go and have a look at the Hillary Clinton book
Because Washington is a hard road to travel

Hillary will do her best in order to deceive
Washington is a hard road to travel
She’s lied before, and now this is her reprieve
Washington is a hard road to travel, I believe

Hillarycare was there, back in 1993
To help bring public health to the nation
But her friends in insurance, drugs and hospitals
Helped her understand campaign frustration

She needed to have their cash, and so she made the dash
straight into the arms of those who’d give her money
And the health plan she put forth was kindly shown the door
And her health bill died a death that wasn’t funny

Hillary will do her best in order to deceive
Washington is a hard road to travel
Hillary's conflict of interest makes us heave
Washington is a hard road to travel, I believe

Bill was her man, and those two had a plan
to get themselves both into the white house
But Bill the president, had a pair of falling pants
and he liked to mess around on his spouse

Bill liked to get it on, with every woman that came along
A womanizer he had been labeled
He had Lewinsky and nine more, doing business on the floor
and many say that Hillary enabled.

Hillary will do her best in order to deceive
Washington is a hard road to travel
She’ll enable and support and more money she’ll receive
Washington is a hard road to travel, I believe

Benghazi is a place where she came face to face
with another round of lies and deception
But the events that happened there, under Clinton’s care
Are confusing and defy comprehension

“Those 4 people died because of a video”
She said to try and quell the public fire
But then it was found out, wasn't much a doubt
On Benghazi she’d been found a liar


Hillary will do her best in order to deceive
Washington is a hard road to travel
She’ll easily tell a lie, so do not be naive
Washington is a hard road to travel, I believe

The presidential nominee has a role to play
in the security of the nation
So when she sends top secret mail in a most uncertain way
I start to feel political apprehension

From white water and real estate to being a corporate shill
Hillary presents a double standard
And if she is the president she’ll go to capitol hill
Where her enemies will be slandered.

Hillary will do her best in order to deceive
Washington is a hard road to travel
She’ll service her corporate friends, their objectives she’ll achieve
Washington is a hard road to travel, I believe
