Trucker Speed

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
I [G]got her letter in an [D]old mail box
I for[C]got I had at a little truck stop
And I [G]read it once and then I [D]read it again
I could [C]hardly keep from cryin'
I've been [G]drivin' around the last [D]week or so
With an [C]empty truck, I don't have a load
And [G]I don't care cause to t[D]ell you the truth
I [C]think I might be dying

[Chorus 1]
And [G]it's trucker [D]speed, Benzedrine
[C]Percocets, amphetamines
[G]Black beauties and wes[D]t coast
turna[C]rounds
When the [G]coast is clear I [D]drive with my knees
I [C]mix it all up like a recipe
[G]Coca-Cola and [D]coffee
to wash it [C]down
Some[G]times I feel like my [D]wheels
ain't touchin' the [C]ground

[Verse 2]
At the [G]side of the road he [D]said you're a mess
When I [C]told him she didn't leave an address
Then he [G]got another call said [D]wait right here
I'll be [C]back in a little while
I [G]put my head a[D]cross my arms
[C]Slept on the wheel for an hour or more
And I [G]started it up and [D]took off
into the [C]night

[Chorus 2]
And [G]it's trucker [D]speed, Benzedrine
[C]Percocets, amphetamines
[G]Black beauties and wes[D]t coast
turna[C]rounds
When the [G]coast is clear I [D]drive with my knees
I [C]mix it all up like a recipe
[G]Coca-Cola and [D]coffee
to wash it [C]down
Some[G]times I feel like my [D]wheels
ain't touchin' the [C]ground

[Verse 3]
I've [G]been [D]high-centered, low throttle
When [C]I couldn't stop I peed in a bottle
I've been [G]so lonesome I made [D]Hank Williams
[C]Look like a party of five
I've [G]been beat [D]up, broke down
[C]Loaded on a truck and driven into town
I [G]always thought she'd be [D]there
at the end of the [C]line
I [G]always thought she'd be [D]there
at the end of the [C]line

[Chorus 3]
And [G]it's trucker [D]speed, Benzedrine
[C]Percocets, amphetamines
[G]Black beauties and wes[D]t coast
turna[C]rounds
When the [G]coast is clear I [D]drive with my knees
I [C]mix it all up like a recipe
[G]Coca-Cola and [D]coffee
to wash it [C]down
Some[G]times I feel like my [D]wheels
ain't touchin' the [C]ground
Some[G]times I feel like my [D]wheels
ain't touchin' the [C]ground
Some[G]times I feel like my [D]wheels
ain't touchin' the [C]ground
