Monday I hauled steel from Pennsylvania
Swapped it for a load of longhorns in Fort Worth
Wednesday I slept 'til noon
Parked outside a Houston greasy spoon
Carried Texas hot sauce out to Albuquerque
Spent the night and showered in a Motel 6
Now I'm unhitched and coming home
Get ready girl, I'm burning up the road
And I'm only hauling one thing
Girl, it belongs to you
I can't get home too soon
I'm in the passing lane
Pegging needles, leaving smoke
One state to go between you and me
And I'm only hauling one thing
I bet right now, you're sleeping in my t-shirt
The one you steal each time I'm on the road
You say it makes you think of me
I think of that, and I don't need caffeine
So I'm jamming gears and standing on the pedal
Filled up with diesel fifty miles ago
For five days I've been in this truck
But I'll be home before the sun comes up
And I'm only hauling one thing
Girl, it belongs to you
I can't get home too soon
I'm in the passing lane
Pegging needles, leaving smoke
One state to go between you and me
And I'm only hauling one thing
I'm only hauling one thing
Girl, it belongs to you
I can't get home too soon
I'm in the passing lane
Pegging needles, leaving smoke
One state to go between you and me
And I'm only hauling one thing
Yeah, yeah, I'm only hauling one thing, babe
Yeah, yeah, I'm eastbound down, that's right
Loaded up and trucking, baby
So long!
