"Richmond Is a Hard Road to Travel" is a well-known Confederate song of the American Civil War, based on the song "Jordan is a Hard Road to Travel" by Daniel Decatur Emmett. It was popular with the Confederate troops in the East, as it made fun of Union commanders in the first two years of the war. The song was penned by the editor of the Southern Literary Messenger, John Reuben Thompson, in 1863.
Each stanza mentions a separate campaign, starting with First Battle of Bull Run, the Valley Campaign, the Battle of Drewry's Bluff, the Peninsula Campaign, the Battle of Cedar Mountain, the Second Battle of Bull Run, and the Battle of Fredericksburg.
