Well,
when I was just a little bitty kid,
I remember one time Mama said,
Daddy sends you all of his love from Frisco Bay.
I didn't understand till I was grown why
my Daddy didn't spend a little time at home
until he'd run around the country that-a-way.
Oh,
I've been looking at the world through a windshield
And I see everything in a little bit different light
I got a sweet little thing I'm a-wantin' to see in Nashville
And I'm down around Nashville on South tonight
Long
strips of rubber that you see were
burnt off of this rig by the likes of me
And they'll rot along the highways in this land
I'm gonna sign my name in this diesel smoke
And let the ones that come along behind me
choke And try to beat this a-pace
I'm a-sittin' in a time they can
Oh,
I've been looking at the world through a
windshield Watchin' it fly by me on the right
I got a sweet little thing I'm a-wantin' to see in Nashville
And I'm down around Dallas on the road on South tonight
Well,
I've pushed this rig through sleet and rain
And I've driven through the rough terrain
Of the Rockies to the docks of old L.A.
On down that old Pacific shore I swing north
and run for Baltimore Or somewhere about two thousand miles away
Oh,
I've been looking at the world through a
windshield Watchin' it fly by me on the right
I got a sweet little thing I'm a-dyin' to see in Nashville
And I'm down around Dallas on the road on South tonight
And I'm down around Dallas on the road on South tonight
