21 days on the road not a wink of sleep
Gotta belly full of pills and a bottle of heat
Sleep makes you old but on the road
Truckin is a young man's dream
Pin head pencil pushing loud mouth geek
Cut me off a mile marker 33
I made him pay for the move he made
With his Pinto and a fiery grave
Eighteen wheels and a crowbar
Will cut you down to size
Eighteen wheels and a crowbar,
Can't run away this time
Eighteen wheels and a crowbar,
I'm gonna put the hammer down
Eighteen wheels and a crowbar,
Fate was on my dashboard looking right at me now
Big rig rollin' thru a foggy night
The pile in my stomach don't taste quite right
3 minutes a Mercedes Benz
Got wrapped around a telephone pole
Don't know my 20 and my eyelids are shut
I've fallen down and I can't get up
Drivin' blind but just in time
To lay to rest your weary soul
Eighteen wheels and a crowbar
Will cut you down to size
Eighteen wheels and a crowbar,
Can't run away this time
Eighteen wheels and a crowbar,
I'm gonna put the hammer down
Eighteen wheels and a crowbar,
Fate was on my dashboard looking right at me now
I've been hauled, mauled, run to the side
I've got the pedal to the metal and I ain't satisfied
I tarped my load but the open road
Flipped a wrench with that dispatch scum
As I raise the tarp to above my head
Come crashing through the desert in a flash of red
I've painted my foot, there's knots in my gut
It's time to pay the human toll
Eighteen wheels and a crowbar
Will cut you down to size
Eighteen wheels and a crowbar,
Can't run away this time
Eighteen wheels and a crowbar,
I'm gonna put the hammer down
Eighteen wheels and a crowbar,
Fate was on my dashboard looking right at me now
