Intro:  G5 F5 C5

Verse:

C5                               F5
I pulled my Diamond REO into a truck stop down the road
G5                               C5
I asked for toast and coffee and the waitress told me no
C5                               F5
She said she'd heard about me and all the wrong I'd done
G5                               C5
About how I'd left my woman for this trucking I'd begun

Chorus:

G5           A5
Here today, gone tomorrow
F5           
It's a hard luck woman
G5                        C5
Taking to a truck loving man

Verse:

A friend sat down beside me and he told me not to pine
It takes a certain breed of man to leave a home behind
I started into drinking and a thinking about my life
If you want to be an all night trucking man
Can't expect to have an all night wife

Chorus:

Verse:
I'm thinking about my story as I drive on down the line
I wonder about my wife at home and how she spends her time
And as the night drives on and on, my mind begins to shake
I'd rather have a woamn lay me down thean all these 
Bennies to keep me awake.

Chorus:
