I Estopped at a roadhouse in ATexas
A Elittle place called Hamburger B7Dan's
I Eheard that old jukebox a-Aplaying
A B7song called the Truck Driving EMan
The waitress then brought me some Acoffee
I Ethanked her but called her B7again
I Esaid that old song sure does Afit me
B7'Cause I'm a truck driving Eman
Pour me another cup of Acoffee
For Eit is the best in the B7land
I'll Eput a nickel in the Ajukebox
And B7play the Truck Driving EMan
Instrumental - harmonica then fiddle
I climbed back aboard my old Asemi
And Ethen like a flash I was B7gone
I Egot them old truck wheels a-Arolling
I'm on B7my way to San EAntone
When I get my call up to Aglory
They Etake me away from this B7land
I'll Eherd this old truck up to AHeaven
B7'Cause I'm a truck drivin' Eman
Pour me another cup of Acoffee
For Eit is the best in the B7land
I'll Eput a nickel in the Ajukebox
And B7play the Truck Driving EMan
