The Driver’s Song Lyrics by Bill Morrissey

Standing Eight

0

[Verse 1]
I've got my lunch packed, I've got the darkness of a new moon
My truck is gassed tonight, I'll be leaving soon
Up the highway north, all across the state line
I love the feeling of this brand new truck of mine

[Verse 2]
I turn off the highway and onto the back roads
The houses are set back and the lights disappear
I feel like the only man in this world
Everybody goes to sleep so early up here

[Bridge]
I stop my truck in the middle of the road
The same stop each time on this familiar route
I open the side valve then climb back to the cab
And I drive these woods 'til that big tank empties out

[Verse 3]
I love these back roads of New Hampshire
They twist and wind like a rolling sea
I feel like a captain who knows no fear
Everybody goes to sleep so early up here
