Intro:
Verse:
I pulled my Diamond REO into a truck stop down the road
I asked for toast and coffee and the waitress told me no
She said she d heard about me and all the wrong I d done
About how I d left my woman for this trucking I d begun
Chorus:
Here today, gone tomorrow
It s a hard luck woman
Taking to a truck loving man
Verse:
A friend sat down beside me and he told me not to pine
It takes a certain breed of man to leave a home behind
I started into drinking and a thinking about my life
If you want to be an all night trucking man
Can t expect to have an all night wife
Chorus:
Verse:
I m thinking about my story as I drive on down the line
I wonder about my wife at home and how she spends her time
And as the night drives on and on, my mind begins to shake
I d rather have a woamn lay me down thean all these
Bennies to keep me awake.
Chorus:
