Roll Truck Roll

I'm going down to Feather River Canyon gotta go down Donner Summit is closed Another eighty miles and I sure am lonesome cause I'll be late gettin' home Roll truck roll take me to my baby I'm tired of bein' alone Roll truck roll I wanna see my baby roll truck roll me on home One of these days I'm gonna quit this old road when I've saved enough money Gonna buy me a place back home and live a little just me and my kids and my honey Mama said little Danny's not doing too good in school Said he keeps talkin' about his daddy that he hardly knows Teacher said that he just sits at his desk and draws the pictures of trucks I guess I know what that means and what it shows Why I'm not home three months out of the year And here lately it's showing on me too I saw a lot of country at first and I really like it then But anymore there's just none of it new Oh what a long old haul this has been I've had rain most of the way and now it's beginning to pour It sure looks cold that wind blowin' up through that canyon But I gotta keep my spirits up so I guess I'll sing a little more I'm going down to Feather River Canyon Roll truck roll me on home --- Roll Truck Roll - Red Simpson
