Introdução:
A
Well my truck's wound up and it's ready to roll
D
I got a good buddy workin' for the Highway Patrol
E A
So if I get a ticket or two, It's gonna be alright
A
But the sheriff and his boys they're at Ernesta Lane
D
Unless they're out to lunch at the Dairy Queen
E
They'll be itchin' to turn on those red, white, and blue
A
lights
A
Well just like my daddy I was born a drifter
D
I got a rebel heart and eight - ball shifter
E A
Horns on the hood and forty channel CB
Well some things you never leave home without
D
Like your Bible, log book, and your drivin' route
E A
And your Best Of Dale Watson on CD
E D
Cause I'm a diesel drivin' daddy
A
Don't you get in my lane
E D
Puttin' the pedal to the medal
A
Bringin' eighteen wheels of pain
D
I've been in love
E
Broke some hearts
A D
Settled down long enough to replace the parts
D E
Kicked a little asphalt
A
along the way
It's a lonely life livin' on the road
A
I'm a panhandlin' manhandlin'
D
Post holin' high rollin' dust bowlin' daddy
E
I ain't got no blood in my veins
I just got them four lanes
A
Of hard Amarillo highway
(coro)
E DA
Up and down that honky tonkin' highway
