Big Freightliner (Larry W. Jones 01/09/2007) (song#4306)

Big Freightliner, let me hear you whine
Big wheels, keep a-rollin’ down the line
Rollin’ through the night burnin’ up the road
Big Freightliner, get me there on time
Big wheels, I feel you rollin’ just fine
Gotta make it to Houston with a heavy load

That Choctaw truck stop was warm and nice
Glad I’m through that Oklahoma snow and ice
Headin’ south across the Red River Valley line
Soon I’ll be on that Dallas-Houston superslab
No more stops for diesel, no more credit tab
Check my pocket watch, I’m just a little behind

Big Freightliner, let me hear you whine
Big wheels, keep a-rollin’ down the line
Rollin’ through the night burnin’ up the road
Big Freightliner, get me there on time
Big wheels, I feel you rollin’ just fine
Gotta make it to Houston with a heavy load

Black smoke a-pourin’ from flaming stacks
Passin’ up a freight racing down the tracks
Too fast to count the white dotted lines
Gotta keep an eye out for black and white
Hard to see a trooper in the dead of night
Keep this rig rollin’ toward Houston signs

Big Freightliner, let me hear you whine
Big wheels, keep a-rollin’ down the line
Rollin’ through the night burnin’ up the road
Big Freightliner, get me there on time
Big wheels, I feel you rollin’ just fine
Gotta make it to Houston with a heavy load
