lyrics

I'm always up before the dawn, long haul trucker
I've been everywhere this road has gone, long haul trucker
My handles tnt cause I haul fuel, long haul trucker
Others shy away cause of impending doom, long haul trucker
Cause I haul whatever pays the most, long haul trucker
Living scared ain't living at all, long haul trucker
My wheels are spinning even sitting still, long haul trucker
Scales are traps for tired heels, long haul trucker
My Cummins sipping diesel while I'm sipping coffee
Waiting in line behind another Peterbilt
But you don't get paid idling still
Gonna drive all night on speed pills
Looking for a truck stop loving kind, long haul trucker
She looks fresh picked off the vine, long haul trucker
Offers free loving for a free ride, long haul trucker
Says here daddy don't treat her right, long haul trucker
The cabs been lonely since Elvis died, long haul trucker
That old hounds seen a million miles, long haul trucker
So we seal the deal with a kiss, long haul trucker
The rest is between us and the rig, long haul trucker
My Cummins sipping diesel while I'm sipping coffee
Waiting in line behind another Peterbilt
But you don't get paid idling still
Gonna drive all night on speed pills
My Cummins sipping diesel while I'm sipping coffee
Waiting in line behind another Peterbilt
But you don't get paid idling still
Gonna drive all night on speed pills

Shawn Irwin Austin, Texas

Hello, I'm a singer/songwriter from the Big Timber. My music is my therapy, or more like turning piss into lemonade. My lyrics read like a secret diary exposed by a scorn lover. Tainted love aside, there are other tales of truckers, ghosts, and a search for a calm place to ride out the storm. I may be strange, but I think that's what makes me unique. Listen and judge for yourself. ... more
