Buck Owens Truck Drivin' Man lyrics

I stopped at a road house in Texas it was a little place called Hamburger Dan's

And I heard that old jukebox a playin' a song about a truck drivin' man

Pour me another cup of coffee for it is the best in the land

I'll put a nickel in the jukebox and play the Truck Drivin' Man

The waitress just brought me some coffee I thanked her but called her again

I said that old song sure does fit me cause I'm a truck drivin' man

Pour me another cup of coffee...

I climbed back aboard my old semi and then like a flash I was gone

I got them old truck wheels a rollin' I'm on my way to San Antone

Pour me another cup of coffee...

And play that Truck Drivin' Man
