Thank you Lord for all the miles without an accident
|
But I wanna ask one more favor before my life is spent
|
Please Lord this once before I turn to dust
|
Let me run the wheels plumb up a Greyhound bus
|
You know I have been running these highways in this old rig for a long long time
|
And I have been humiliated by them dang buses till it's a crime
|
Well even when I'm empty gettin' all that she's gotten high
|
They're blowin' their horns and flash them lights on just fly on by
|
But you know if I had me a rig I'd do about a hundred under the great big load
|
Well I'd wind her up tight and I'd blow me one of them grey dogs plumb off the road
|
So Lord before my last run to the foot of them mighty golden stairs
|
I hope there'll be an answer to this poor old trucker's prayer
|
So thank you Lord for all the miles without an accident
|
But I want to ask one more favor before my life is spent
|
Please Lord this once before I turn to dust
|
Let me run the wheels plumb up a Greyhound bus
|
