Story Behind The Song

I was asked to write a song for a girl to sing as part of a truck driving album. I wrote "Truck Drivin' Girl" but they completed the project.

Song Description

This girl explains why she drives big rigs and how she's able to do so...in spite of the men who think she doesn't have what it takes.

Lyrics

Truck Drivin' Girl by Glenn Warren

My teacher stopped and stared in kindergarten...
Instead of dolls, I played with toy trucks;
My momma told my teacher not to worry...
I was only trying to do what daddy does;
But now it's men who stop and stare at truck stops...
Guess a woman driver's fun to talk about;
Well, I sure ain't the first...and I sure won't be the last...
So if any of you men still have your doubts...

Chorus: I've got this Cummins diesel hummin' down the highway
These big tires slappin' concrete...keepin' time;
Those truck drivin' shows on the allnight radio..
Warnin' me when danger's down the line;
I keep both hands on the steerin' wheel...
Both eyes on the road;
This Truck Drivin' Girl can really make this semi roll...
This Truck Drivin' Girl can make it roll.

I agree God made a man a little stronger...
But then He made power steerin' and power brakes;
So when it comes to drivin' these old semis...
I've got all the power that it takes;

Chorus: I've got this Cummins diesel hummin' down the highway
These big tires slappin' concrete...keepin' time;
Those truck drivin' shows on the allnight radio..
Warnin' me when danger's down the line;
I keep both hands on the steerin' wheel...
Both eyes on the road;
This Truck Drivin' Girl can really make this semi roll...
This Truck Drivin' Girl can make it roll.
