I've Trucked All Over This Land
(bill fries, chip davis)
[clap your hands & stomp your feet.]
Well, i've walked the line on 89
In the arizona sun
I've chased the moon & i've caught a star
On u.s. one-oh-one
I've seen the sights from the northern lights
To the bend in the rio grande
I've took in a lot of this u.s.a.
'cause i've trucked all over this land
[start the banjo pickin'.]
Well, i've changed a tire by the light of a fire
On the rock-bound coast of maine
I've shoveled snow up in idaho
Been stuck on the kansas plains
I've been to the end of the world & back
With a wheel & a stick in my hands
I've passed the test & i've done my best
I've trucked all over this land
[chorus]
I've trucked all over this land
From maine to the rio grande
I've paid the price of a truckin' life
But i've trucked all over this land
[lots of banjo pickin' here.]
I've heard the wail of a gallopin' gale
On the road to the florida keys
I've felt the roar of a thunderstorm
On the oklahoma seas
I've set my sail on the oregon trail
I've camped in a redwood stand
I've loved the best & i've hated the rest
But i've trucked all over this land
[chorus]
I've trucked all over this land
From maine to the rio grande
I've paid the price of a truckin' life
But i've trucked all over this land
[more banjo pickin' here.]
I've said a prayer as i climbed the stairs
On the rocky mountain side
I've learned the words & i've sung my song
And i've travelled far & wide
I've fought the fight & i've done all right
For the likes of a wanderin' man
I've paid the price of a truckin' life
But i've trucked all over this land
[chorus]
Well, i've trucked all over this land
From maine to the rio grande
I've paid the price of a truckin' life
But i've trucked all over this land
Yeah i've trucked all over this land
From maine to the rio grande
I've paid the price of a truckin' life
But i've trucked all over this land
