Truck Driver, Truck Driver — текст песни (Bobby Bare)

(Shel Silverstein)

Truck driver, truck driver stop your Diamond T
Do you have room inside your rig for a highway bum like me
Hey, thank you very much
Don`t suppose you could sorta scoot over a little bit
And give me a little more room `cause I got long legs
And it`s a long way to where I`m goin`.

Truck driver, truck driver let your diesel roll
Now do you have one cigarette for a man who`s wet and cold
Yeah, thank you very much.
Ah, I don`t reckon you got one of those filter tips instead
I don`t really like them regular cigarettes
It`s bad for your lungs you know what I mean
And it`s a long way to where I`m goin`.

Truck driver, truck driver lemme ask you one thing more
If I can`t sleep in your sleeper cab can I sleep on your trailer floor
Thank you very much
I don`t suppose I could sorta borrow your jacket
To kinda cover up and get warm with
`Cause I`m cold and it`s a long way to where I`m goin`.

Truck driver, truck driver I see in that plastic frame
A picture of a sexy blonde and you know that`s my kind of dame
Man, I`d really like to grab onto your wife huh
Well, it`s a long way to where I`m goin`. oh yeah.

Truck driver, truck driver thank you for the ride
Now if you lend me a dollar and half I`ll move on down the line
Well, I ain`t no need to get mad about
Some folks don`t never do nothin` to nobody
And I ain`t gonna rob you no more
Yeah Mister, you sure got a good lookin` old lady
Like to get ahold o`her...
