Intro: G F C
Verse:
[C]I pulled my Diamond REO into a t[F]ruck stop down the road
[G]I asked for toast and coffee and[C] the waitress told me no
[C]She said she'd heard about me an[F]d all the wrong I'd done
[G]About how I'd left my woman for [C]this trucking I'd begun
Chorus:
[G7]Here today, g[Amin]one tomorrow
[F]It's a hard luck woman
[G]Taking to a truck loving [C]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:
