how'd i get this way? - buck truck lyrics

hey trucker, what’re ya doin’?
you ever wonder how you got this way?
remember, you were gonna have a big home on the riviera
why, you were gonna be a pro golfer
or a wrassler, or a pro bowler
maybe a fishin’ guide on one of them pretty lakes down in louisiana
you wonder how you got this way?
here, you’re sittin’ in your cab, bouncin’ along? ha*ha*ha
i’m*a tell you how you did, ’cause here’s what happened to me

one two three, and

see, when i was little, i had a tricycle
i pеdaled that too till i got a bicycle
i pedalеd and screeched on that little sucker
and i played like i was a big*time trucker

hey, how’d i get this way?
what happened to me along the way?
i was gonna go to college and get a degree
what in the world got hold of me?
hey, how’d i get this way?

see, my daddy was a jammer, and he loved it too
now, he and that rig, they paid their dues
he loved the freedom and the open skies
had a truckin’ soul, and dreams in his eyes
only saw him a little at a time
he’d back that big rig up on a dime
let me ride on his short hauls
momma didn’t like it––she crawled the walls
she knew the life i was headed for
she begged and pleaded and gave me what*for
but my daddy was my real hero
and i always loved it when he let me go
hey, how’d i get this way?
what happened to me along the way?
i was gonna go to college and get a degree
what in the world got hold of me?
hey, how’d i get this way?

watch it, i’m ‘onn pick some

then my daddy retired to his rocking chair
gave me his rig, put grey in momma’s hair
so i took daddy’s rig, and i hit the road
hauled watermelons on my first load
i was a trucker

i do get tired of all the slab*crud
but my daddy put truckin’ in my blood
i blame him for lettin’ down the hammer
and makin’ me a lifetime gearjammer

hey, how’d i get this way?
what happened to me along the way?
i was gonna go to college and get a degree
what in the world got hold of me?
hey, how’d i get this way?
what?
one day we were truckin’ near the georgia line
the little trucker junior had somethin’ on his mind
he looked up at me and had this to say
daddy? how’d we all get this way?

i said, well son, i know what you mean
he said, you and momma and me in*between
said, i’m starin’ at gauges and listenin’ to merle
what’ll i be when i grow up in this world?
daddy? how’d we get this way?

hey, how’d we get this way?
what happened to me along the way?
i was gonna go to college and get a degree
what in the world got hold of me?
a*hey, how’d i get this way?

well, i don’t know
i just took my daddy’s rig
checked out the radiator
filled that sucker up
kicked a few tires
looked at the fan belts
got me a couple of merle haggard tapes, ha*ha*ha
went and got me a loan
and hit that slab
i was a trucker
and that’s the way it goes
just got hooked on that white*line fever
need to go to a detox unit
sweat it out, ha*ha*ha
aw yeah, that’s how i got that way
join the club
