Roll Truck Roll

Terry Allen · Other Songs - Terry Allen

Yeah, roll truck roll

Yeah, roll truck roll

Better get on down the highway

You better get on down the road



Yeah, I work for a trucking company

And my forearms big as beef

If it wasn't for the highway

My family'd be on relief



Yeah, roll truck roll

Yeah, roll truck roll

Better get on down the highway

You better get on down the road



Yeah, lonely heart wreck hitch hike truck stop

Ah, sad cafe where the people never care

Yeah, you think you ordered a big hot beef sandwich

But you're the one that's gonna get eatin' in there



Yeah, roll truck roll

Yeah, roll truck roll

Better get on down the highway

You better get on down the road



Yeah, the waitress smile is like some witch's womb

(Woo)

An her black dress moves like water through the room

An flowers die, twisted across your table

An the menu reads like a tattoo on your tomb



Yeah, roll truck roll

Yeah, roll truck roll

Better get on down the highway

You better get on down the road
