Just A Few More Miles Lyrics - Dave Dudley

Well I'm all packed up and I'm almost ready to go 

This big G-model runs every way but slow 

When I get tired while I'm on the way instead of stoppin' I always say 

Just a few more miles and I'll rest for a little while 

I been a runnin' all night makin' time like I never seen 

My sweet baby's waitin' for me back in New Orleans 

I saw a sign that said arrive alive I thought I better stop and let Benny drive 

Just a few more miles and I'll rest for a little while 

I got a date with an angel gotta make my turn on time 

Can't stop to sleep gotta movin' on down the line 

For slow movin' traffic it might be best to notify Fort Worth and all points west 

Just a few more miles and I'll rest for a little while 

[ guitar ] 

I been a runnin' with a Jimmy since I left El Paso 

I'm pullin' 44 thousand give or take a pound or so 

He tried to pass me like I knew he would then he saw that bulldog on my hood 

Just a few more miles and I'll rest for a little while 

In a few more hours I'll be with my baby again 

Ain't had no sleep since I can't remember when 

Tonight I'm a gonna paint the town tomorrow I'll be San Diego bound 

Just a few more miles and I'll rest for a little while 

Yeah a few more miles and I'll rest for a little while 

Just a few more miles and I'll rest for a little while
