400 miles of open road
Mack truck cab with a jimmy stove
Honk, pull out to pass
See the black smoke rollin' back
30 fewer miles I have to go

Drinkin' black coffee and takin' pills
I've got to stay awake through these hills
Downgrade up ahead
Don't brake, try third instead
Stop again for fuel in Baton Rouge

I'm a truck a-drivin' man
That's what I am
Drivin' man

I'm a truck a-drivin' man
That's what I am
Ah-ooh

And I got to know the waitress in that cafe
I honk my horn and watch, you'll see her wave
I love her when I can
But I'm a truck drivin' man
The highway is the only home I know
I'm a truck a-drivin' man
That's what I am
Drivin' man

And in two more hours I'll be home
Turn this rig around and out I go
Weight scales up ahead
If they stop us boy, we're dead
I've got 600 pounds of overload

I'm a truck a-drivin' man
That's what I am
Drivin' man

I'm a truck a-drivin' man
That's what I am
Ah-ooh

Man made the truck
Lord made the man
Lord went made me a truck drivin' man

Truck-a, truck-a, truck-a, truck-a, truck-a, truck-a, truck drivin' man
That's what I am
Drivin' man
Lord made me a truck drivin' man
