Capo 3
Verse 1:
E D
I'm a road man, a load man
A
18 wheels and a serious plan
E D
Ain't nothing gonna go gettin' outa hand
G A E
While I'm behind the wheel
E D
I'm on fire, and I'm wired
A
Full of diesel and ready for hire
E D
While I'm building a rollin' empire
G A E
Of blood sweat and steel
Verse 2:
E D
I don't waste time, I make time
A
Tearin' a strip off the white line
E A
I'm a professional man, I'm a one of a kind
G A E
And I know how to bring it in
E D
I got a clean slate in five states
A
And twenty-nine that ain't so great
E D
And fourteen that'll have to wait,
G A E
And two I've never been
Chorus:
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-road-hammers/60943.html ]
E D
I'm a road hammer
A
A white-knuckled steel-gear jammer
E D
A rig-jockey highway slammer
G A E
I'm just doin' what I gotta do
E D
I'm a road hammer
A
A double-talkin' C-B rambler
E D
I'll haul your load from Alabama
G A E
All the way to Timbuktu
Verse 3:
I've hauled left coast to west coast
California sun where they're chillin' the most
I follow 309, the teddy bear's ghost
All the way to New Orleans
I've been from Thunder Bay, to P-A
All the way down to F-L-A
And every little town along the way
They're ain't much that I haven't seen
Chorus
Bridge:
E D
Another day, another town
E A
Diesel up, and hammer down!
Verse 4:
I got a pimped ride, pretty bride,
Four little babies in my town reside
Back in the hills on the mountainside
South of the river bend
I got my cellphone, on roam
Sweet little thing wants to get it on
She says I left something turned on at home
She can't wait till I'm back again!
Chorus x2
