Livin' Like A Trucker

Well I’ve been livin' like a trucker
For a month or more
Well, I’m steaming like a diesel
That cannot feel it’s throat
Well, I’m closing all the windows
Keeping out the rain
But, I’m not complaining
In fact I’d do it all again
I’m a ramblin' man
Cannot stop a travlin' man
I’ve been singing for my supper
But I never get to eat
Well I queue up at the diner
But I cannot find a seat
Well, I’ve been livin' like a gypsy
Feeling like a king
Really feel like singin'.you know
That’s the mood I’m in
I’m a ramblin' man
Some kind of travlin' man
You’ll never catch me working 9 to 5
That’s for some people, but me I wanna ride
All around the world, to the planets end
I’ve seen some places, but more I ain’t seen yet
Yeah…
Lose an hour, gain an hour
Somewhere on a map
Flying through the time zone
Another plane to catch
Why I’ve always gotta see what’s on the other side
So I pack my bag
Get on my way
And catch my train and ride
I’ve been livin' like a hawker
In days both hot and cold
Well, I’m sleeping if I have to
Before the wagons roll
Well, I’ve been hopin' and I’ve been prayin
Since I was last here
Tell your mama not to worry
Come on baby, get on up here
I’m a ramblin' man
Some kind of travlin' man
Well I’ve been livin' like a trucker
For a month or more
Well, I’m steaming like a diesel
That cannot feel it’s throat
Well, I’m closing all the windows
Keeping out the rain
But, you won’t hear me complaining
In fact I’d do it all again
I’m a travlin' man
Some kind of ramblin' man
Yes, I’d do it all again
I’d do it all again, baby
Travlin' man, travlin' man
Yeah…
