Lyrics

Rollin'

Rollin' on the highway in my Chevy pickup truck
Leaving town behind be cause I just ran out of luck
I'm rolling on the highway living in a pickup truck
LIving on the highway sleeping in a pickup truck

My wife just threw me out the door
The boss said I don't want to see you any more
I got no place to call my own
So I had to hit the road

rusty Chevrolet
My eyes are getting heavy and I haven't pissed for days
I'm rolling on the highway living in a pickup truck
LIving on the highway sleeping in a pickup truck

Been six days and I ran out of food
I'm sweating like a pig and I'm driving in the nude
I just can't figure out where to go but
When I get there I'll let you know

I'm rolling on the highway with a 24 of beer
Using dirty underwear to wipe away the tears
Rolling on the highway living in a pickup truck
LIving on the highway sleeping in a pickup truck

I stop for gas somewhere in Quebec
Slipped on the ice and break my neck
Now I'm all wrapped up in a body cast and
You never even called to ask, I'm doing fine

Rolling through the hospital
In a wheelchair made of steel
Nurse comes round three times a day
For a sponge bath and a meal

When they let me out of here
I'm living in a pickup truck
Gonna stick it up your driveway
I'm living in a pickup
