Truckdriver G C G C G C When I was a young girl, I wanted to be a truckdriver G C I wanted to drive my whole life away G Bm I would stop at all of the truckstops on the roadside and I?d C Am Order the special with fries G D C Then I would get back in my truck and drive for miles and miles G C I grew up on a farm out in southern Ontario, I guess I was a lucky girl G C But our white picket fence was a bit of a joke, it was broke and it fenced me in G Bm Sometimes to get away I would lay myself down C Am In the sweet summer hay fields at night G D I'd watch the headlights on the highway and I would C Dream of a better life Chorus: G C I would drive G C I would drive I got my license when I was seventeen years old, it was my freedom ticket I?d listen to rock 'n' roll on FM radio as I drove those country roads Then I?d pick up a six-pack and a couple of friends and we?d just Waste time, driving around I'd feel the wind on my face, then I'd go get drunk in a field someplace Chorus: I would drive I would drive When I was twenty-two, I finished some school, packed up and Moved out west Sitting on my roof above the city smoking hand-rolled cigarettes But there were buildings between me and who I wanted to be And they started closing in on me I got that ?gotta get me outta this place? feeling again So I got me a job stocking shelves for eight bucks an hour in A small mountain town grocery store And the women cashiers had been working there for many years or more And their husbands worked the butcher line While I tried to keep my stock in a straight line But I was biding time and besides I never was the marrying kind Bridge: D C I?m hard because I?ve had to be D C And I?m scarred from my life?s accident scenes D But singing taught me to feel something C In the midst of nothing D C It got my heart pumping and put my hands on the wheel (hands on the wheel) Chorus: I will drive I will drive G C When I was a young girl, I wanted to be a truckdriver
