How Fast Them Trucks Can Go

[Verse 1]

You know, a lot of folks stop at truck stops

They just naturally think they should

'cause they figure any place a truck driver eats

The food's just got to be good

So they go in there amongst all them truck drivers

Sittin' around, talkin' load

They're talkin' about women and stuff like that

And how fast them trucks'll go

[Verse 2]

There's the little old place out on 66

Where a lot of the drivers stop and get their kicks

Reckless-eyeballin' this waitress they got called Flo

There's always a bunch in here, hangin' out

Cuttin' up and talkin' about

How she wiggles when she walks and stuff like that

And how fast them trucks'll go

[Verse 3]

Why, it's a wonder a feller can sit down and eat

His ham and eggs, or his bread and meat

With a good-lookin' woman like that around and on the go

First thing you know, you get to fidgetin' and fussin'

And a-nudgin' one another, instead of discussin'

How she wiggles when she walks and stuff like that

And how fast them trucks'll go

[Verse 4]

Well, old Flo, she just takes it all in stride

And swells all up with her woman pride

She's tickled plumb pink you'd come in to see the show

She throws a little ol' extra wiggle in that walk

And you just sit there and grin and talk

About homemade lovin' and stuff like that

And how fast them trucks'll go

[Verse 5]

I can't explain how it makes you feel

But you tip her five bucks on a two-dollar meal

Get yourself together and start headin' out kinda slow

While you're pushin' that diesel on down the line

You get to thinkin' about your woman you left behind

How she wiggles when she walks and stuff like that

And how fast them trucks'll go
