White Freightliner Blues    (1977)

I'm goin' out on the highway, listen to them big trucks whine
I'm goin' out on the highway, listen to them big trucks whine
White freight liner won't you steal away my mind?

Well, New Mexico ain't bad, Lord, and the people here, they treat you fine
Well, New Mexico ain't bad, Lord, the people here, they treat you fine
White freight liner won't you steal away my mind?

Well, there's bad news from Houston, half my friends are dying
Well, there's bad news from Houston, half my friends are dying
White freight liner won't you steal away my mind?

Well, Lord, I'm gonna ramble, 'til I get back to where I came
Ah, Lord, I'm gonna ramble, 'til I get back to where I came
White freight liner's gonna haul away my brain

I'm goin' out on the highway, listen to them big trucks whine
I'm goin' out on the highway, listen to them big trucks whine
White freight liner won't you steal away my mind?
White freight liner won't you steal away my mind?
