Gripp, Parry - Truck Drivin' Man Lyrics






Early in the morning I'm out on the job
I've got a lot of work to do and I'll do it all, by God
Got mud on my wranglers and callous on my hand
Lord, I'm a truck drivin' man
Truck drivin' man
Truck drivin' man
You know I need a truck that works as hard as I can
Truck drivin' man
Truck drivin' man
Lord, I'm a truck drivin' man

    "Truck Drivin' Man" is a popular country song written and recorded by Terry Fell in 1954.[1] One of his band members, Buck Owens, sang harmony with him on the recording.

    In 1965, Owens recorded the song himself, omitting the fourth verse - "When I get my call up to glory, They will take me away from this land, I'll head this truck up to Heaven, 'Cause I'm a truck drivin' man."[2]

    S.... J....

    Fuck yes!

  20. c.... m....

    come to me buck

  21. P.... J....

    [Verse 1]
    I stopped at a road house in Texas
    A little place called Hamburger Dan's
    I put a quarter in the jukebox
    Play the Truck driving Man

    The waitress she poured me some coffee
    I thanked her and called her back again
    I said this song sure does fit me
    Cause I'm a truck driving man

    [Chorus]
    Pour me another cup of coffee
    For it is the best in the land
    I'll put a quarter in the jukebox
    And play the Truck Driving Man

    [Verse 2]
    I climbed up inside my old semi
    And then like a flash I was gone
    I had them old wheels rolling
    I'm on my way to San Antone

    [Chorus]
    Pour me another cup of coffee
    For it is the best in the land
    I'll put a quarter in the jukebox
    And play the Truck Driving Man

    [Chorus]
    Pour me another cup of coffee
    For it is the best in the land
    I'll put a quarter in the jukebox
    And play the Truck Driving Man
    And play the Truck Driving Man

    P.... J....

    You got girlfriend in Vietnam?

  22. a.... ....

    This is a great song sung by the late, great Buck Owens. Gotta love that distinctive "Bakersfield" sound.

  23. R.... W....

    Good yes ,best no way,

  24. i.... a....

    The REAL new country

  25. E.... G....

    Amen brother. Buck is the bomb. Makes my soul sing to hear it again!

  26. t.... l....

    Toby kieth brought me here

  27. k.... R....

    savage tune. found this in 2015. keep her lit!

  28. M.... S....

    In the late 90s I played bass in the band Liquid Prairie in St. Louis. This song was always a crowd pleaser. Now I'm living this song! Life imitates art and vice versa!

  29. K.... ....

    This is what made me wanna drive trucks.

  30. m.... ....

    Believe Mel Taylor played the drums setting the steady beat. mos60

    m.... ....

    The drummer on this 1964 recording was Willy Cantu. Mel Taylor ( the Ventures drummer) played on some other 1964 Buck Owens recordings but Willie Cantu, an original member of the Buckaroos, was on all of Buck's sessions from 1965 to 1967. Praguefrank is a good source for studio musician logs back to the 1950's.

    m.... ....

    @dreadnaught90 no it was mel on drums still, the first song with Willie Cantu was "I Don't Care"

  31. D.... B....

    this is the ONE !

  32. n.... s....

    Love that song and "The Bakersfield Sound"! The Wynn Stewart, Merle Haggard (who suggested the name Buckaroos), Don Rich, Roy Nichols, Buck Owens songs and sounds. What a time to be alive in California!

    n.... s....

    Surely. Buck & Don Rich best ever Bakersfield guys.

  33. J.... D....

    I love it. Takes me back to the 70s and 80s. Had trucks !!!! I know what it is.

  34. J.... ....

    I remember watching Jimmy Dean's TV show week after week hoping to see Buck Owens and his band!
    Great three-part vocal harmony on the Buckaroos' version of this tune--usually it was just Buck and Don singing. Probably Doyle Holly on the third part.

  35. N.... L....

    pogchamp

  36. B.... R....

    PREFER BUCK OWENS VERSION TO ANY OTHER GREAT THANKS,Keith

  37. r.... c....

    been listning buck owens since 14 years old now am 59 buck owens best country music you can have thank you very much for sharinggggggg

    r.... c....

    Sure ain't a bad way to be livin' life!

  38. J.... L....

    classic

    J.... L....

    John Livingston cha

  39. A.... A....

    heard David Allan Coe do a version of this great country music by a legend Buck Owens alot of people think he was just hee haw but he was so much more Don Rich's telecaster &the rest of the Buckaroos

  40. A.... B....

    It may be the most widely known version, and it rocks, but the definitive version is by Jimmy Martin, King of Bluegrass and singer of more than one great truck drivin' song.

  41. d.... f....

    Not just another classic Buck Owens song. Another great song by Buck Owens. So many memories. My Daddy love to watch the Buck Owens show. But so did I and my Mom.

  42. T.... L....

    A CLASSIC BUCK OWENS SONG!

  43. B.... T....

    The best version.

  44. S.... B....

    This is certainly the definitive version of this song. Buck played lead guitar in Terry Fells band at the time this song was written. That's Jay MacDonald on the steel in this track.

    S.... B....

    Mel Taylor drums? mos60

  45. A.... L....

    One of the legends...super voice!!!

  46. B.... W....

    Nobody's ever done this great country classic quite like Buck Owens and his Buckaroos did on this excellent album from the early 60's. I had the pleasure of meeting Buck at an outdoor concert in Indiana back in that era and was highly impressed by what a gracious and down to earth person he was. Not only a great artist, but also a fine man IMHO. 

    B.... W....

    Bill Winchell lucky, if I could meet two people it would be him and hank. too bad I was born in 93 haha

    B.... W....

    I know what ya mean I wanna meet Johnny Horton and Hank real bad but forever cursed to have been born in 00

    B.... W....

    You sound chill as fuck

    B.... W....

    Kinda like George Jones' The Race Is On. Ive heard Nobody else play it like he did.

    B.... W....

    @Zac Smith i was born in 1992

  47. O.... L....

    Great song!

  48. m.... ....

    5 stars.....there surely is no dispute who the best country band was in 60's and 70's. Pure and simple country. No smoke and mirrors or pretty girls necessary

    m.... ....

    You're right Marty Robbins really was the best :P
