"Haggard's on the radio,
Singin' 'bout them big wheels movin' on,
And behind me there's a heavy load
That's gotta be in Denver before dawn.
Sometimes I wonder as I look back
And see that big ol' trailer in the mirror,
Was this kind of life worth losing all I left
Behind me through the years.
But I'll keep jamming them gears
For as long as I'm here,
Another million miles, it ain't no big deal.
And I'll give up driving this truck
When they pry my stone cold fingers from the wheel.
Staring out the windshield,
I think about the times away from home,
Do the children know how sad I feel
In knowing what I've missed
And now they're grown?
But I can't quit, it's in my blood,
Guess it'll take dyin' and when I do,
I'll leave it to my youngest son,
He seems to want to fill his old man's shoes.
But I'll keep jamming them gears
for as long as I'm here,
Another million miles, it ain't no big deal.
And I'll give up driving this truck
When they pry my stone cold fingers from the wheel."
And I'll give up driving this truck
When they pry my stone cold fingers from the wheel."

That IS a good one...And Leland's last name reminds me of another dude that laid out great travelling music....Jimmy Martin!!! which then reminds me of Ralph Stanley which then reminds me of Dave Evans which then........
....Cyber....If you've never heard Dave Evans play and sing,you've got too,esecially with your background in music.He's raw as hell and spent a few years in the pen for beating a guy down,but man,can he sing and play lead banjo."Wild Bill Jones" shows he can rip..."Last Public Hanging in West Virginia","Pretty Green Hills" and'99 Years" live wth Ralph Stanley and Larry Sparks shows you he can sing.
