[Verse 1] Sunup on the dock Coffee in a lid Cold chain on the trailer Bills in the skid Three states by noon Rain on the glass You said, “Drive safe, baby” I said, “I’ll bring it back” [Pre-Chorus] White line, blacktop Same old prayer Phone on the dash But I’m still there Hands on the wheel Heart on the run One more load Then I’m done [Chorus] H.P.T. truck driver H.P.T. truck driver Long road, hard mile Still I keep her H.P.T. truck driver H.P.T. truck driver If you need me home I’ll be there, believer [Verse 2] Fuel stop biscuits Grease on my jeans Map folded twice Under the seat County line moon Cut through the haze Your note in my pocket Gets me through the days [Pre-Chorus] Chrome on the bumper Mud on the boots Every red light Feels like truth One more bridge One more town I can hear your laugh When the sun goes down [Chorus] H.P.T. truck driver H.P.T. truck driver Long road, hard mile Still I keep her H.P.T. truck driver H.P.T. truck driver If you need me home I’ll be there, believer [Bridge] Ten-four, sweetheart I’m almost in sight Taillights blinking Through the night Ain’t no storm That can break this line I’m coming in Right on time [Chorus] H.P.T. truck driver H.P.T. truck driver Long road, hard mile Still I keep her H.P.T. truck driver H.P.T. truck driver If you need me home I’ll be there, believer
