Highway One

I got itchin' shoes and a dose of the blues this mornin'
A simple story, too much beer and fun
I won't feel so bad when I'm back in the cab and I'm movin'
Headin' out on to highway number one
When I left my mates, I was feelin' great, I remember
We were full of noise and ready for the run
I didn't think I had too much drink, so it shows ya
Oh, it must be the sleep that brings a man undone

Headin' interstate with a load of freight at sunrise
No maps to read, I got all I need in my road map eyes
Oh, let the diesels roar, but don't slam the door when you're leavin'
As I find my way on to highway number one

I put a cartridge in, it starts to spin and it's playin'
Somethin' about a sad hangover song
Oh, my head's so sore from the night before that I'm sayin'
"Old diesel, won't ya take me gently home?"

Headin' interstate with a load of freight at sunrise
No maps to read, I got all I need here in my road map eyes
Oh, let the diesels roar, but don't slam the door when you're leavin'
As I find my way on to highway number one
