Roll Truck Roll

Yeah roll truck roll yeah roll truck roll
Better get on down the highway you better get on down the road

Yeah I work for a trucking company and my forearms big as beef
If it wasn't for the highway my family'd be on relief
With the headlights on the trees

Yeah roll truck roll yeah roll truck roll...

Yeah lonely heart wreck hitchhike truckstop
Ah sad cafe where the people never care
Yeah you think you ordered a big hot beef sandwich
But you're the one that's gonna get eatin' in there
With the headlights on the trees

Yeah roll truck roll yeah roll truck roll...

Yeah the waitress smile is like some witch's womb
And her black dress moves like water through the room
And flowers die twisted across your table
And the menu reads like a tattoo on your tomb
With the headlights on the trees

Yeah roll truck roll yeah roll truck roll...
[ instrumental ]
Yeah roll truck roll yeah roll truck roll...
