Trucker Song

(Brady Seals, Stan Lynch)

Just got kicked to the curb on the assembly line
“Company Sold”, that's what it said on the sign
Went flat busted when I run outta things to sell
Borrowed a little down for an old used Peterbilt
Under the seat was an 8-track of Red Sovine
Got a new favorite song, Phantom 409

Gas is high but nothin' like my old house payment
You can have suburban heights gimme open pavement
This big sleeper cab is better than a penthouse suite
From way up here I see everything I wanna to see
Got eighteen wheels that are rollin' and I'm movin' on
High on the hog livin' out a trucker song

There's a lady trucker headed south to meet me
We struck up a conversation on my brand new CB
When I drop this load I'll be runnin' north outta Texas
To meet up at a Waffle House outside of Memphis
She helps me pass the time while I'm gettin' from here to there
She's my fast pink pussycat I'm her little teddy bear

Chrome stacks, bright lights a Thermos full of black hot coffee
Let that donut eatin' county mounty just try to stop me
I gotta blue collar symphony blastin' outta my machine
Out on the super slab listen to my air horns scream
Got eighteen wheels that are rollin' and I'm movin' on
High on the hog livin' out a trucker song

These eighteen wheels are movin' right along
High on the hog livin' out a trucker song
