Livin' like a trucker
(Rory Gallagher)
Well, I've been living like a trucker for a month or more
Well, I'm steaming like a diesel that cannot feel its throes
Well, I'm closing all the windows, keeping out the rain
But I'm not complaining, in fact I'd do it all again
I'm a ramblin' man, cannot stop a travellin' man
I've been singing for my supper but I never get to eat
Well, I queue up at the dinner but I cannot find a seat
Well, I've been livin' like a gypsy, feelin' like a king
Really feel like singin', you know that's the mood I'm in
I'm a ramblin' man, some kind a travellin' man
You'll never catch me working nine to five
That's for some people but me, I wanna ride
All around the world, to the planet's end
I've seen some places, but more I ain't seen yet
Lose an hour, gain an hour, somewhere on the map
Flyin' through the time-zones, another plane to catch
Why I've always gotta see what's on the other side
So I pack my bags, get on my way, catch my train and ride
I've been living like a hawker in days both hot and cold
Well, I'm sleepin' if I have to, before the wagons roll
Well, I've been hopin' and I've been prayin' since I was last here
Tell your mama not to worry, come on baby, get on up here
I'm a ramblin' man, some kind a travellin' man
Well, I've been living like a trucker for a month or more
Well, I'm steaming like a diesel that cannot feel its throes
Well, I'm closing all the windows, keeping out the rain
But you won't hear me complaining, in fact I'd do it all again
I'm a travellin' man, some kind a ramblin' man
Yes, I'll do it all again, I'll do it all again, baby
Travellin' man, travellin' man
