pickin em up and layin em down
got a heavy load hammer down
i'm PULLIN OUTTA town
hittin the slab interstate road
got my diesel truck crankin eatin up the road
headin for dallas gettin there tonight
pickin em up and layin em down
got a heavy
load hammer down
towns are flyin by
dodging alligators
chickin coops closed
keep on truckin
gotta make some time
keeping my diesel between the lines
in the hammer lane better slow down
spot a local yokell comin up behind
me
flashing his lights
better
get back to the granny lane
truck drivin man you gotta be insane
ole truck is rollin and swaying
plastic jesus on the dashboard is nodding
sayin a prayer = radio
playing some Christian tunes
gona be in dallas pretty soon
ole diesel truck is a rockin
ole CB be a talkin
i'm pickin em up and layin em down
got a heavy load
i'm puttin the hammer down
gona be in Dallas town
keeping ole truck a rollin watching my fuel
just
passed a bull hauler and A WIGGLE WAGON they be a rollin too
OLE diesel truck is a rollin exhaust STACKS BLOWN SMOKE
making good time that no joke
pickin em up and layin em down
got a heavy load hammer down
rollin into dallas drop and pick up
then
back on the road again
headin to oklahoma city gotta set out my load
then home to my darlin waiting for me
been a long ole trip but I am happy to
see
the ole homestead comin up on me
ya'll remember the next time you see a trucker driving down the road
say a prayer God keeps em safe so he can get home
ya'll if ever need help, you can depend on a truck driver
to give ya a hand
truck drivers
are hard drivin and tough son of a guns they all have a hearts of gold
and they will always help ya if your having trouble on the road
you can take that to the bank
now
before I finish this song
I just wanna say
this song is dedicate to truck drivers on the road
god bless yall
keep your shiny side up
and
wheels on the road....
