Verse 1

I've driven across this country,

Over this old brown land

Oh baby don't you tell me,

That I'm not your truck driven man.

I'll be hauling out of Kalgoorlie

Down to old Adelaide town.

Then I'll be Sydney bound.

Oh woman don't you love me...

No need to slam the door

You said you won't wait for me anymore

I'll be driven down the hi-way

Can't push this rig anymore

I'll still be four days or more.

CHORUS

Oh woman don't you love me.

Try to understand I'm your truck driven man

I've driven across this country

Over this old brown land

Just to hold your hand...

I've been driven across this country

Over this great brown land

Hauling black coal and sand

Oh woman don't you worry because

I'm your truck driven man

I'll be hauling out of Sydney, in four hours, for sure

Just to be at homes door

When I come to love you

Can't see you anymore

With darkness all around me

And wedding photo's on the floor

Oh woman now you left me

You just walked out the door

I only know how to push the clutch to the floor

Woman don't you love me

Don't you want me anymore

CHORUS

Oh woman don't you love me

Try to understand I'm your truck driven man

I've driven across this country

Over this old brown land

Woman you just couldn't understand

This is all I know to put cash in your hand

I'll only ever be a truck driven man

Now the highway is calling

I'll just lock the door

And pick up our photos from the floor

And hang them with my wedding ring

On the key hook next to the door

I won't be back no more

I'll be driving the highway with ten other rigs or more...
