Doug Jones - Just Another Trucker Passing By lyrics

rate me

I should have filled my thermos at that truckstop I just passed

I'm forty miles to Dallas and I'm fading fast

I let my mind wander back . . just to help me stay awake

Does Mary Lou McCarty know I love her to this day

Some people called it puppy love but it's dogged me all these years

I roll down my window . . wash away the tears

I know she lives in Dallas and I know I'll never call

It's a long way from lost everything to once we had it all . . .

(Chorus)

Eighteen wheels roll on past a love that's been long gone

At least it's been long gone for one of us

The city lights are shining bright . . on me and this big rig tonight

While I'm drivin' past my one and only love

Eighteen wheels roll out of sight, I whisper Mary Lou goodnight

Just another trucker passing by

Well I'll unload in Tulsa maybe go out on the town

Then I'll circle back this way from that Tulsa turnaround

This road goes on forever and forever never ends

For now it's goodbye Dallas til I see you once again

(Instrumental)

(Chorus)

Eighteen wheels roll on past a love that's been long gone

At least it's been long gone for one of us

The city lights are shining bright . . on me and this big rig tonight

While I'm drivin' past my one and only love

Eighteen wheels roll out of sight, I whisper Mary Lou goodnight

Just another trucker passing by

Just another trucker passing by
