Intro: G F C
Verse:
CF
I pulled my Diamond REO into a truck stop down the road
GC
I asked for toast and coffee and the waitress told me no
CF
She said she'd heard about me and all the wrong I'd done
GC
About how I'd left my woman for this trucking I'd begun
Chorus:
G7Amin
Here today, gone tomorrow
F
It's a hard luck woman
GC
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:
