"STONE COLD FINGERS"
(L. Martin)

"Haggard's on the radio,

Singin' 'bout them big wheels movin' on,

And behind me there's a heavy load

That's gotta be in Denver before dawn.

Sometimes I wonder as I look back

And see that big ol' trailer in the mirror,

Was this kind of life worth losing all I left

Behind me through the years.

But I'll keep jamming them gears

For as long as I'm here,

Another million miles, it ain't no big deal.

And I'll give up driving this truck

When they pry my stone cold fingers from the wheel.

Staring out the windshield,

I think about the times away from home,

Do the children know how sad I feel

In knowing what I've missed

And now they're grown?

But I can't quit, it's in my blood,

Guess it'll take dyin' and when I do,

I'll leave it to my youngest son,

He seems to want to fill his old man's shoes.

But I'll keep jamming them gears

for as long as I'm here,

Another million miles, it ain't no big deal.

And I'll give up driving this truck

When they pry my stone cold fingers from the wheel."

And I'll give up driving this truck

When they pry my stone cold fingers from the wheel."
