White Freight Liner Blues (Live at the Old Quarter)
[Verse 1]
I'm goin' out on the highway
Listen to them big trucks whine, whine
I'm goin' out on the highway
Listen to them big trucks whine
White Freightliner won't you steal away my mind

[Verse 2]
Ah, New Mexico ain't bad, Lord
And the people there they treat you kind
Ah, New Mexico ain't bad, Lord
And the people there they treat you kind
Ah White Freightliner won't you steal away my mind

[Verse 3]
Well, it's bad news from Houston
Half my friends are dying
Well, it's bad news from Houston
Half my friends are dying
White Freightliner won't you steal away my mind

[Instrumental Verse]

[Verse 4]
Ah, Lord, I'm gonna ramble
Till I get back to where I came
Ah, Lord, I'm gonna ramble
Till I get back to where I came
Till that White Freightliner's gonna steal away my brain
[Verse 1]
I'm goin' out on the highway
Listen to them big trucks whine
I'm goin' out on the highway
Listen to them big trucks whine
White Freightliner won't you steal away my mind
Ah White Freightliner won't you steal away my mind
