Lyrics [pdf]

Dm Em
She was  walking down the driveway to the  bus stop;
Dm Am
With a  suitcase, and tears running down her  face
Dm
She  stopped and looked me over and said
Em
"Honey, you're a  wreck
Dm Am Dm
sure don't like to  leave you in this  place."

Dm Em
"I'd  like to take you with me but I  don't suppose I can;
Dm Am
He's  treating you as bad as he did  me."
Dm
And  then said "This is crazy,
Em
but I'll be in town til  noon,
D A D
So  just in case I'm  leaving you the  key."
D D5 G
  I'm  just an old self-driving  truck,
D
don't like taking chances,
A
But I want to change my  luck,
D G D
I'll  meet my friend tomorrow and I  hope she'll treat me  right
D A D
wonder where we'll  be tomorrow  night.
D G
met her at the hotel door next  morning
D A
She  jumped on board and said to me "Hey  Honey, you're the best!"
D A
With a  dress that matched my  paint job
D G
and a  camper shell for  me,
D A D
We  hit the road at noon and headed  west.
D D5
woman and a  self-driving truck
D
You  have to take some chances
A
And make your own damned  luck,
D G
We'll  be best friends forever and we'll  treat each other right,
D A D
And  I know who will  sleep with me ton ight.
