Lyric White freight liner blues

by Townes Van Zandt

I m goin out on the highway
listen to them big trucks whine
I m goin out on the highway
listen to them big trucks whine


White freightliner
won t you steal away my mind
Ah, New Mexico ain t bad, Lord
and the people there they treat you kind
and the people there they treat you kind


Well, it s bad news from Houston
half my friends are dying
Well, it s bad news from Houston
half my friends are dying


Ah, Lord, I m gonna ramble
till I get back to where I came
Ah, Lord, I m gonna ramble
till I get back to where I came


I m goin out on the highway
listen to them big trucks whine
I m goin out on the highway
listen to them big trucks whine
