Road Train

My home is on the old farm
Just off highway number one
Ninety years in the family name
Running cattle, cutting cane
But I love the freedom of the road
Turned twenty-one, I had to go
Worked hard at making my own luck
Took out a loan, bought a truck

They call me Road Train
I make my living steering this rig
There's no load that's too big
Yeah, Road Train
Hauling gravel, dirt and coal
Digging this highway's rock and roll
Road Train

Had my share of close calls
Lucky I'm not on that wall
Remembering now dear friends
All good men, God bless them

They call me Road Train
I make my living steering this rig
There's no load that's too big
Yeah, Road Train
Hauling gravel, dirt and coal
Digging this highway's rock and roll
Road Train

I always loved the freedom of the road
Turned twenty-one, well I had to go
I worked night and day making my own luck
Burning up the tar in the cab of my truck

They call me Road Train

Make my living steering this rig
There's no load that's too big
Yeah, Road Train
Hauling gravel, dirt and coal
Digging this highway's rock and roll
They call me Road Train
I make my living steering this rig

There's no load that's too big
Yeah, Road Train
Hauling gravel, dirt and coal
Digging this highway's rock and roll
Road Train
