[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
C
A truck drivin' man is man's best friend
F
'Cause he's the backbone of the land
G
You're having trouble, shut down on the road
C
He's there to lend a helping hand
[Verse 2]
C
Got a smile on his face, he loves 'em, yes he does
F
Everyone on the road
G
He's working all day and he's working all night
C
Carryin' his country's load
[Verse 3]
C
Now, see him up there sitting so high
F
How many miles on them wheels?
G
He's working vacations, holidays packin'
C
With the boss man dead at his heels
[Verse 4]
C
Now I gotta get movin', gotta get to it, hear me
F
Got to get to travelin', get gone
G
It's a hard way working and knockin' 'em down
C
Before the trucking man working goes on
C
Here we go
