sixteen tons of steel - nashville country singers lyrics

Loading...

the radio kept sayin’ that it was gonna snow
but this big ol’ rig and i had to leave for buffalo
this haul of mine was heavy––sixteen tons of shiny steel
i kept hopin’ they’d be wrong as i grabbed hold of the wheel

i drove for about an hour, when the snow began to fall
it wasn’t very long till i could hardly see at all
when i saw a truck*stop sign way up ahead of me
i knew i had to make a stop for a cup of black coffee

there was a girl inside the place who kept her eyes on me
finally, she spoke, and said that she was so lonely
she wanted to hitch a ride with me, said she was headed for buffalo
though my company always frownеd on this, i said, come on, let’s go

now, i’m a decеnt kind of guy, but man, i’ve seen it all
after seven years of drivin’ trucks, i knew i’m heading for a fall
well, she was really somethin’, and i guess i will never know
why this gal kept right on goin’ when we got to buffalo

but i think on my next trip i’m goin’ down to new orleans
where the weather’s always warm, and the air is good and clean
and if i ever meet a gal as lonely as the one before
i’ll park my rig, and quit this job, and settle down with her
i’ll park my rig, and quit this job, and settle down with her
