Lyrics

Here I stand beside my old rig ready to cry
Knowing that my trucking days have died
but my trucking pride still remains
inside, I'm still the same
I guess it's just the feeling of the road that's to blame

Chorus
Seeing all those pretty sights, looking at all those city lights
As the miles and miles and miles roll by in the night

I know I should have settled down
should have married pretty Emily Brown
But you know I just didn't like that town
So here I am just a standing here trying to conquer my deepest fears
I'm thinking about my last drive home
and Lord, this time it's home to stay

Chorus

When I get home I'll pull up to the shed
walk cross the yard but I won't go to bed
I'll just sit out on the steps and look into the sky
look at the stars and let the tears fill my eyes

Chorus

Here I stand beside my old rig
