White Freight Liner Blues

Steve Earle


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 freight liner 
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
