As we travel down the highway we see them everyday

Sometimes we flash our lights to move them out of the way

 

These are the truckers than move everything we need to buy

And without these tireless heroes of the road we could not get by

 

Everything we eat or drink and on the bed at night we lie

At some point it was on a truck traveling through the night

 

The trucker is always away from their family and their friends

Hauling everything we need from our food to a Mercedes Benz

 

They travel through the rain and snow seven days a week

They have to deliver their load on time sometimes with little sleep

 

While most of us go home at 5 eat and then sit down and relax

The truckers are waiting to get loaded for the that long haul going back

 

Christmas Day while you’re at home with your spouse and your kids

Some lonely trucker is behind the wheel wishing he was home with his

 

From My World To Yours,
