lyrics

Coming off old foggy top
southbound hauler on another drop
I got a sack of tall freight about a pony high
I'm built as mean as a mule good Lord I’m fixing to die
You know that broken road never saved a soul
it only leads to the fire of ruination below.

A little rocky on the slow down
southbound hauler on the edge of town
Another full cup on a dark night
I’m bound to carry it out hell, I’ll be shining a light
You know that old line never had name
but neither did the devil boy they’re one and the same - they've got me

Burning up a flatland gap
suffering a dead route dry
burning up a flatland gap
gonna’ roll until I die
Oh, until I die…

Burning up a flatland gap
suffering a dead route dry
burning up a flatland gap gonna’ roll until I die

Out of the way old Baby Blue
won’t be troubled with the sight of you
Another cold start with the hammer down
hell, I’ll be revving it up before I roll out of town
you know that broken road will only lead you astray
and you won’t rise up to ride another day

Burning up a flatland gap
suffering a dead route dry
burning up a flatland gap
gonna roll until I die
Oh, until I die
