Diesel Driving Daddy |
Well my truck’s wound up and it’s ready to roll |
I got a good buddy workin' for the Highway Patrol |
So if I get a ticket or two, It’s gonna be alright |
But the sheriff and his boys they’re in Estilline |
Unless they’re out to lunch at the Dairy Queen |
They’ll be itchin' to turn on those red, white, and blue |
Lights |
Well just like my daddy I was born a drifter |
I got a rebel heart and eight — ball shifter |
Horns on the hood and forty channel CB |
Well some things you never leave home without |
Like your Bible, log book, and your drivin' route |
And your Best Of Dale Watson on CD |
Cause I’m a diesel drivin' daddy |
Don’t you get in my lane |
Puttin' the pedal to the medal |
Bringin' eighteen wheels of pain |
I’ve been in love |
Broke some hearts |
Settled down long enough to replace the parts |
Kicked a little |
Asphalt along the way |
There’s a lonely life livin' on the road |
When the only friend you’ve got is the radio |
And even he fades in and out every now and then |
But maybe someday you’ll find the right one |
That’ll shift the gears and let ya ride shotgun |
Knows how to get that big ole rig to spin |
I’m a panhandlin' manhandlin' |
Post holin' high rollin' dust bowlin' daddy |
I ain’t got no blood in my veins |
I just got them four lanes |
Of hard Amarillo highway |
Up and down that honky tonkin' highway |
