I Was Meant To Show You. How Strong I'D Be Without You. But Though I Must Confess That I'M Nothing Without Your Love. You'Re My Only Horizon. Such A Flame Of Diamond.
I wheeled into a truck stop in Texas. A little place called Hamburger Dan. I heard that old jukebox a playin'. Song about a truck drivin' man. . That waitress done brought me my coffee.
I got a cute little gal in every eastern town. From Boston to St Louis. There's some that I don't even know. But I'm looking forward to. . 'Cause I like my women everywhere I go.

Well I have a few hours to wait while they've loaded my trailer with freight. So I borrowed my buddy's old car and drove down to the dancehall and bar.
Well I'm a travelin' man made a lotta stops all over the world. And in every port out Omaha I at least got lovely girl. Got a pretty senorita a waitin' for me out down in old Mexico.
You took her love away from me but that was your mistake. She's gonna break your heart in two and she'll pick the time and place. You know the end has come an end how long will you have to wait.
Down in Macon Georgia there's a woman waitin' for my six foot frame. I got her picture in my mind as I head down the turnpike out of main. I'd better think of something else or I might stick my rifle through the floor.
Three hearts in a tangle which heart will I break. Tonight as I sit by my window watching the people go by. I'm trying to reach a decision but I know I can't do what's right.
Hey lady I'm looking for a jukebox and a barstool that fits my bottom side. Their streets're just too dark for walking and I'm in no condition to ride.
She's hurt so many men say they've loved her. She gave herself not knowing they're all alive. Tonight she sits alone no longer wanted wishing she could relive her life.
Six foot six he stood on the ground. He weighed two hundred and thirty five pounds. But I saw that giant of a man brought down to his knees by love. He was the kind of a man that would gamble on luck.
There's a star spangled banner waving somewhere. In a distant land so many miles away. Only Uncle Sam's great heroes get to go there. That is also where I want to live someday.
About the time I put myself in fairly decent shape there you are again. About the time I go to bed and finally fall asleep there you are again. About the tim that I stop seeing your face everywhere and I think that I may live again.
I was sittin' in the terminal waitin' for my load. When a greenhorn driver came in off of the road. I heard him tell that foreman get my little pink slip.
When I see the water come and clear beside a shore. When all the guns are silent and the sky is clear once more. When the bugles fill the air with victory's swet song.
The streets are dark and empty and you walk them all alone. You think about your love affair and wonder what went wrong. You go to bed each night and pray you'll never see the dawn.
Up in the morning out to the fields I work like a devil for my pay. But that lucky old sun ain't got nothing to do but roll around heaven all day. Well I fuss with my woman and I toil for my kids I sweat till I'm wrinkled and gray.
Good evening friend hey you're lookin' good I'm happy about your prosperity. But before you ask how I'm a gettin' along well I'm down on my luck temporarily.
The talk of the town was a secret to me I was the last one to see. It's funny how blind a heart in love can be. Yes the talk of the town was a secret to me.
