Semi-Truck

(album: Hot Licks, Cold Steel & Trucker's Favorites - 1972)

Well, here I sit, all alone with a broken heart
I took three bennies, and my semi truck won't start

Well, I haul my rig, out of San Jose
I gotta be in Cincinnati Monday morning to get my pay
Can't waste no time, in this all night grill
I jumped in my jimmy and I popped some little white pills

Well, here I sit, all alone with a broken heart
I took three bennies, and my semi truck won't start
I got a gal, way back in Saint Lou
I got a tall, red-headed mama in Kalamazoo

Well, she's waiting for me, and I'm gonna be late
'Cause it will be noon before I'm on my way

Well, here I sit, all alone with a broken heart
I took three bennies, and my semi truck won't start

Well, here I sit, all alone with a broken heart
I took three bennies, and my semi truck won't start
