The Kenworth Of My Dreams

I sold my old Camaro
 I sold my fishing boat
 A friend said he would cosign
 On a small commercial loan
 So I shopped around until I found
 A rig within my means
 I put fifteen thousand dollars down
 On the Kenworth of my dreams
 My sister s husband helped me out
 When we took the thing apart
 Every bolt and piston
 I knew them all by heart
 We cleaned her out and painted her
 And brought her up to speed
 I proudly put my name upon
 The Kenworth of my dreams
 But sometimes late at night
 Out on some interstate
 I hear those sad country songs
 True love found, true love gone
 Lately I just turn the damn thing off
 A lot of folks just shook their heads
 Convinced that I d lost mine
 They said living in a God-damned truck
 Is just a waste of time
 That to spend yhour life behind the wheel
 Ain t as great as it might seem
 I just thanked them all and left one night
 In the Kenworth of my dreams
 But sometimes late at night
 Out on some interstate
 I hear those sad country songs
 True love found, true love gone
 Lately I just turn the damn thing off
 Business, it s been pretty good
 I ve no cause to complain
 I haul bourbon up to Buffalo
 And frozen foods to Maine
 Toxic waste or Quaker State
 It s all the same to me
 I ll go anywhere for anything
 In the Kenworth of my dreams...
