I'm going down to Feather River Canyon |
|
Gotta go down, Donner Summit is closed |
|
Another eighty miles and I'm lonesome |
|
'Cause I'll be late gettin' home |
|
Roll truck roll, take me to my baby |
|
I'm tired of bein' alone |
|
Roll truck roll, I wanna see my baby |
|
Roll truck roll me on home |
|
One of these days I'm gonna quit this old road |
|
When I've saved enough money |
|
Gonna buy me a place back home and live a little |
|
Just me and my kids and my honey |
|
Mama said, little Danny's not doing too good in school |
|
Said, he keeps talkin' about his daddy that he hardly knows |
|
Teacher said that he just sits at his desk and draws the pictures of trucks |
|
I guess I know what that means and what it shows |
|
I'm not home three months out of the year |
|
And here lately it's showing on me too |
|
I saw a lot of country at first and I really like it then |
|
But anymore there's just none of it new |
|
Oh, what a long old haul this has been |
|
Had rain most of the way, now it's beginning to pour |
|
It sure looks cold that wind blowin' up through that canyon |
|
But I gotta keep my spirits up so I guess I'll sing a little more |
|
I'm going down to Feather River Canyon |
|
Gotta go down, Donner Summit is closed |
|
Another eighty miles and I'm sure lonesome |
|
'Cause I'll be late gettin' home |
|
Roll truck roll, take me to my baby |
|
I'm tired of bein' alone |
|
Roll truck roll, I wanna see my baby |
|
Roll truck roll me on home |
|
Roll truck roll me on home |
