Lyrics
GEARJAMMIN' DADDY
I drive an 18 wheeler over this ribbon of road,
I'm a gearjammin daddy haulin'these heavy loads,
Over icy roads, or burnin'sands,
Down a steep incline I gotta steady hand,
I'm a gearjammin daddy its the only life I know.
I travel east and west and north and a little south,
I play all the songs on my stereo out loud,
All my tunes are equalized,
Music flows thru my brakelights,
I'm a gearjammin daddy that's the only life I know.
break:instrumental:..."hit it momma"..."overdrive".. "doubleclutch"
When the traffics bad I can make this big rig stroll,
When the freeways clear, its shake,bake,rattle and roll,
Through rain or fog or ice or snow,
These 18 wheels know how to roll,
I'ma gearjammin daddy thats the only life they know.
I got my sweet pretty momma who's waitin' on down the line,
She's waited 6 nites for the big diesel to unwind,
Well I'll get home about midnite,
I'll kiss and love, and hug her tight,
I'm a gearjammin daddy,he's the only love she knows,...
A gearjammin'daddy he's the only love she knows !!!!
