Brother Trucker

Breaker number nine, big buddy

Put your ears on me now

This trucker got to have a big line tonight

Come on sucker

Come back brother trucker, yeah

I keep seeing double unless I close one eye

And I've got to roll, roll, roll brother trucker

Sure 'nuff a shame about the shape I'm in

Roll, roll, roll brother trucker

I'm back on my wheels again

Roll, roll, roll brother trucker

Someone to love the truck driving man

Now roll, roll, roll brother trucker

I'm back on my wheels again

I'm a driving fool

I make my own rules

One part man and one part mule

One part fossil fuel

I got the heart of steel

I pull eighteen wheels

Mister nine to five

In his Coup de Ville

No, never know how it feels

To really roll, roll, roll brother trucker

Holding my own just the best as I can

Roll, roll, roll brother trucker

I'm back on my wheels again

Roll, roll, roll brother trucker

Outward bound from South Bend

Roll, roll, roll brother trucker

I'm back on my wheels again, uh

Moon over New Jersey

Big state police here

Well, I'm in a hurry

Could you let me go in peace?

I'm an independent

I don't make no teamster dough

'Cause the A.F.L. and the C.I.O.

Still don't own the road

And the only man telling me where to go

Is the man who owns my load

He says, roll, roll, roll brother trucker

I say where and you say when

Roll, roll, roll brother trucker

Get back on your wheels again

Roll, roll, roll brother trucker

Turn the goddamn thing around and do it again

Roll, roll, roll brother trucker

I'm back on my wheels again

Fat bucket, I'm back on my wheels again

I'ma running out of whites

Goddamn, dim them headlights now

Two hours sleep in the last two nights

But that won't be alright tonight

Hot as a pistol, dry as a bone

I'm coming on home

And I hope my bed's alone

Roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll
