His tail lights flickered as he pulled up to the truck stop

But he was so young and on a ten city run in love with a truck stop
girl
C G C G
As he went inside he was merrily greeted

This is the last time we can meet
C G G/F# Em
With her hair piled up high and a look in her eye

And drive off without tightening down

He was young and on a ten city run in love with a truck stop girl
