Chorus:
Yeah roll truck roll
Yeah roll truck roll
Better get on down the highway
You better get on ... down the
Road
Yeah I work for a trucking
Company
And my forearms big as beef
If it wasn't for the highway
My family'd be on relief
Chorus
Yeah lonely heart wreck hitch hike truckstop
Ahhh sad cafe where the people never care
Yeah you think you ordered a big hot beef
Sandwich
But you're the one that's gonna get eatin in there
Chorus
Yeah the waitress smile is like some witch's womb
(WOO)
An her black dress moves like water through the
room
An flowers die ... twisted across your table
An the menu reads like a tattoo on your tomb
Chorus
