HARD DRIVIN' MAN song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

18 wheels and a pack of smokes
signed out with the patcher and I'm ready to go
white line fever and it aint no joke
heading down the road to New Mexico

Tucumcari got it in my sights
going get there soon if I drive all night
reading the map by the dashboard lights
full tank of gas and a bottle of whites

I been driving since I'm in my teens
I'm still driving even in my dreams
I'll be driving when I'm in my grave
gotta a full load and a soul to save

I'm a hard drivin' man
I'm a hard drivin' man
I do what I do because it's what I can
I'm a hard drivin' man

got a girl in Boston one in Santa Fe
when I finish one I go the other way
coast to coast I'm going where the money pays
I'm an independent man I aint no slave

it's the life I like it's the life I know
don't be telling me that it isn't so
cause you gotta do what you're meant to do
gotta find the thing in you that makes it true

I'm in love with speed and the driving wheel
I can't tell you man just the way it feels
but when I'm on top of the road agin
it's like I'm standing still and it's the earth that spins

I'm a hard drivin' man
I'm a hard drivin' man
I do what I do because it's what I can
I'm a hard drivin' man
