Lyrics
LOVE MY TRUCK DRIV?IN
Music and Lyrics by Susanne Spirit © 2004
(Chorus) I love my truck driv?in, hard work?in, lov?in man
I love my truck driv?in, hard work?in, lov?in man
He drives that big shiny rig
Hauling loads all over this land
(Verse) Some people say, how can you trust him on the road
Well, I say if I can?t trust him then I shouldn?t be with him at all
See, he gives me this feeling, a peace in my heart
That even though he?s not with me, we are really not apart
(Repeat Chorus)
(Verse) He works hard for me, he needs my respect and my trust
He sleeps very little, his only home cooked meals are at some truck stop
He never says a word, except he misses my kisses and the kids
There aren?t many men like him who work twenty four hours a day and never complain
(Bridge) One night he called from St. Paul
Said he was feeling kind of lonely, that?s all
I said, ?Funny, I was just a looking at the phone
Hoping you?d call and have a load to come home.?
It?s a rough life
It?s a lonely life
But it?s my, my, my, my man?s life
(Repeat Chorus)
(Tag) I, Love, my truck, driv ? i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-en man, my truck drv?in man.
