(I never had too much trouble gettin' a ride, it always came pretty easy.Just stick up my thumb then my finger. The big cars seldom stop. The big Cadillacs, they don't even look at you. They got the stereo on and they're going to town.I don't know --I never stopped and picked up anybody in a Cadillac either...)Truck driver, truck driver,Stop your Diamond T.Do you have room inside your rigFor a highway bum like me?Hey… thank you very much.Don't suppose you can sorta scoot over a little bitAnd give me a little more room…Cuz I got looooong legsAnd it's a long way to where I'm goin'.Truck driver, truck driverLet your diesel roll.Now… do you have one cigarette for a man who's wet and cold?Hey, thank you very much.I don't reckon you got one of those filter-tips instead?I don't really like them regular cigarettes.They're bad for your lungs.Know what I mean?It's a long way to where I'm goin'.Truck driver, truck driverLet me ask you one thing moreIf I can't sleep in your sleeper cab,Can I sleep on your trailer floor?Thank you very much.I don't suppose I can sorta borrow your jacketTa' kinda cover up and get warm with… Cuz I'm coooooldAnd it's a long way to where I'm goin'.Truck driver, truck driverI see in that plastic frameA picture of a sexy blondeAnd you know… that's my kinda dame.Man… I'd really like to grab onto those.Your wife, huh?Well… it's a long way to where I'm goin'.Truck driver, truck driver Thank you for the ride.Now if you'll lend me a dollar and halfI'll move on down the line.Well… there ain't no need to get mad about it.Some folks don't never do nuthin for nobody.I ain't gonna ride with you no more.Yeah, mister, you sure do have a good lookin' old lady.Like to get a hold of her.[Fade out]
