I was sittin' in the terminal waitin' for my load
|
When a greenhorn driver came in off of the road
|
I heard him tell that foreman get my little pink slip
|
This run's too tough and I'm gonna quit
|
|
Now the foreman that day happened to be old Joe
|
Man he was older than time
|
He said son how long you been drivin' this rig
|
I drove all shapes forms fashions and kinds
|
And here you are worried about this one little trip
|
Why I drove a million miles and then some
|
He looked that greenhorn right in the eye
|
And he said boy there ain't no easy run
|

|
|

|
If you got a gal in New York they'll send you out to the plains
|
