trucker man

It's a long road

Buried deep inside his veins

He'll be driving through that night shift

From the mountains to the plains

With the AM tuned to some religious dude

Talking 'bout salvation

He calls his wife and gives his love

And says like hell we're gonna make it

Cause he's a trucker man

Yeah he's a trucker man

It's a long road

Over a million miles and counting

He don't know what the lord has planned

But if he had to guess it's something

He saves his wage waiting for the day

When he leaves his badge behind

And drives his truck with just four wheels

And has some peace of mind

Oh he's a trucker man

Yeah he's a trucker man

Oh he's a trucker man

It's a long road

He feels the ending in his loins

It's just him, his thoughts, the trucker stop

And his cargo from De Moines

They ask him if he has advice to share with boys like you

He smiles back and tips his cap and says they don't make 'em like they used to

Cuz he's a trucker man

Yeah he's a trucker man

Oh he's a trucker man

He's a trucker man
