I leave Pittsburgh with a load of steel
|
Nobody knows just how I feel
|
With the road up ahead and my baby behind
|
Keep me drivin' with a worried mind
|
|
Lonesome Truck Driver Blues
|
Lonesome Truck Driver Blues
|
With the road up ahead and my baby behind
|
Keep me drivin' with a worried mind
|
Lonesome truck driver blues
|
|
If you load too light you can't make a dime
|
If you load to heavy then you get a fine
|
Look at 'em lined up down the road
|
Guess I'd better dump my load
|
|
Well it's coffee cakes and pork and beans
|
Black eyed peas and turnip greens
|
Turn on my radio one time more
|
Hear Ernest Tubb a walkin' the floor
|
|
Oh the motor's purrin' I'm makin' time
|
Takin' me back to that baby of mine
|
She'll be purrin' like a kitten when I walk in the door
|
The truck driver blues I won't sing anymore
|
