Lonesome
T.H.C. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well, it's a long, lonesome road
Through the lifetime of a trucker
But me and my good ol' friend here
We gonna make it

It's a long-haulin' road
And the load of life is heavy
But me an' this good ol' truck
We gonna take it

Through the wind an' rain an' thunder
'Til the stormy skies are blue
An' the sunrise lights the highway
Headin' home

Well, it's a long lonesome road
Through the lifetime of a trucker
But me and this here ol' truck
We gonna make it

Well, it's a long lonesome road
And the miles of life are many
But me an' these eighteen wheels
We gonna take it

It's a long way to go
And the road ahead is troubled
But this ol' rig and me
We gonna make it

Through the wind an' rain an' thunder
'Til the stormy skies are blue
An' the sunrise lights the highway
Headin' home

It's long lonesome road
Through the lifetime of a trucker
But this ol' truck and me
We gonna make it





Yeah, me and this good ol' friend
We gonna make it
