Girl I ain't gonna tell you no lies
Can't get straight my alibis
When you wake up in the morning I'll be gone
Kissin's so good and your huggin's so fine
Guess I'll get some one more time
But when the party's over I'll be movin on

CHORUS:
Then I'll leave town
At the break of dawn
Southbound trucker take me down the road
I'm a ramblin man
One guitar and a free right thumb
On the two strike hitchhike turnpike
That's like home to me

Been to the river and I've been to jail
Got the women and the welfare on my tail
I'm a two-time loser, law and love
But like a big White diesel humming down the line
And when I close my eyes I hear the engines whine
You're the one that I've been dreaming of

REPEAT CHORUS

Two little boys in Abilene
I got a daughter in Dallas I ain't never seen
I was a long gone daddy at 22
But I took my freedom and I take my time
Got just one thing on my mind
To spend this evening loving you

REPEAT CHORUS
