Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I was sittin' in the terminal waitin'
for my load
When a greenhorn driver
came in off of the road
I heard him tell that foreman
get my little pink slip
This run[G]'s too [A]tough and
I'm gonna [D]quit

[Verse 2]
[D]Now the foreman that day
happened to be old Joe
Man he was older than time
He said, "Son,
[C]how long you[D] been drivin' this rig
You know I drove all shapes,
forms, fashions and kinds
Here you are worried about
this one little trip
Why I drove a million miles
[A]and then som[D]e"
He looked [Bb]that greenhorn right
in the [D]eye and he said
?Boy there ain't no easy run?
[A]"I [Bm]drove [D]for Roadway,

[Verse 3]
Interstate,
Hopewell, Great Lakes
Overnight and Time,
Mayflower and Freight Line
[G]Specter, Yellow Transit, [D]Western,
[E]and Gillette
Redball, Rider [A]Northwestern, Big [D]CF
Beaver & Bell, Hoover and McLeans

Vikings

[E]East Texas, Mason Dixon,
[A]Watkin and [D]Transcon
Wilson Associate got all that drivin' done
And I'll tell you [G]boy there [A]ain't
no easy run[D]s"

[Verse 4]
"Now if [D]you got a gal in Texas,
they'll [G]send you up [D]to Maine
If you got a gal in New York,
they'll send [E]you out to the [A]plains
[D]I know what your problem is you got
wo[G]man trouble, [D]son
Well [G]like I said there [A]ain't
no easy [D]run"

[D]And Yunhan and Buckingham
got all that drivin' done
And I'll tell [G]you,
boy there [A]ain't no easy [D]run"

[Verse 6]
I [D]went backward, forwards,
uphill, downhill
Chills spills thrills and pills
And how about Atlas & Cramer
Alabama, Hiway Express,
Murphy Line

That'll blow yer shorts off
That's sumpin else
Then there's, Atlanta, Daily,
McCray, Wheeling, Rockwell, Gilbert
