Lyrics
Over the Road Driver
Nineteen days now and I’m out on this trip
Dropping boots Down East with a rubber grip
Trucking trampolines south-bound to Savannah
Pullin’ tractor crates on in to Tex-ark-ana…
Over the Road Driver
Forty minutes until I got to take my break
Making excuses for the time I got to make
But my oasis is past my time out
Before I turn off and I - - climb down …
I told you baby I’m a free bird.
I told you baby I’m a free bird.
Over the road driver is just another name
For someone trapped inside this long haul game
Over the road driver sees everything the same
I just want to wake up to a day that I don’t blame
This over the road driver.
Over the road driver
Watchin’ weather back home from so far away
Got me thinkin’ bout how long I could stay
A Teamster’s wages about all I get paid
As another night crosses this dark, highway.
Over the Road Driver
I told you baby I’m a free bird.
Over the road driver is just another name
For someone trapped inside this long haul game
Over the road driver sees everything the same
I just want to wake up to a day that I don’t blame
This over the road driver.
This over the road driver.
