She's always waitin' with two loving arms
When I get home
She tells me that she's lonely
Every minute while I'm gone
She keeps begging me to quit this road
But I can't quit that's true
'Cause I was born to be a trucker
And that's all I wanna do
Well, I would like to work in town
But I can't I'm afraid
'Cause you can't get a job in town
Unless you gotta trade
And the only trade I know is drivin'
This old truck that's true
'Cause I was born to be a trucker
And that's all I wanna do
Born to be a trucker
Drivin' this old truck across the nation
Born to be a trucker
That's my only occupation
I guess I'll keep on driving
These old trucks till I get old
'Cause it's the only way of livin'
This poor boy knows
Well, I could have been a business man
If I just gone to school
But I was born to be a trucker
And that's all I wanna do
Born to be a trucker
I was born to be a trucker
And that's all I wanna do
