Testo Awful Lot To Learn About Truck Drivin' - Red Simpson
Testo della canzone Awful Lot To Learn About Truck Drivin' (Red Simpson), tratta dall'album Capitol Collectors Series
I knew that someday, I just had to be a truck
Driver 'cause it holds a fascination for me
To have somebody payin' me a livin'
Wage, to drive all over the country
I told the man at the terminal, "I'll work real hard
Even eight or nine hours a day." I'll never forget the
Way that he laughed and the things that he had to say
He said, "You got an awful lot to learn about truck
Drivin' and you better start learnin' it fast
You got an awful lot to learn about truck
Drivin' and we teach it in a special class
Yeah, you got an awful lot to learn about
Truck drivin' and a whole lotta fuel to burn
Well, it's a heck of a life bein' married to a diesel but son
You got an awful lot to learn." Well, the first rig I drove
Was a cab-over jimmy, stopped at every truck stop I would see
Drinkin' hot coffee, talkin' that trash to
The waitress, truck driver with a capital T
I headed east in Louisiana, dirt near past
Kelly's, hit the air just to turn her around
When I finally got a stop, I was still headed
East but my freighter was Texas bound
Said, "You got an awful lot to learn about truck
Drivin' and you better start learnin' it fast
Yeah, you got an awful lot to learn about truck
Drivin' and we teach it in a special class
Boy, you got an awful lot to learn about
Truck drivin' and a whole lotta fuel to burn
It's a heck of a life bein' married to a diesel but son, you
Got an awful lot to learn." Well, I ordered me a steak when
Six motorcycle riders came in and started struttin' their stuff
Sayin', "Hey man, you one of them truck drivers that's supposed to be
Some tough." Well, they ruined my steak so I just paid up and left
"He ain't so tough," I heard one of 'em shout
Waitress said, "He ain't much of a truck driver either, he run
Over six motorcycles pullin' out." I said, "You boys got a lot to
Learn about truck drivin' and you better start learnin' it fast
Yeah, you got an awful lot to learn about truck
Drivin' and we teach it in a special class
Boy, you got an awful lot to learn about
Truck drivin' and a whole lotta fuel to burn
It's a heck of a life bein' married to a
Diesel but son, you got an awful lot to learn
You have a heck of a life being married to a diesel but son, you
Got an awful lot to learn." Yeah, you gotta get that education
Learn how to make that log book out, shift them gears, boy
Rev that engine up, hear it go rrrn-rrrn-rryn
And when you pass a Greyhound bus, you go like this...
