Slim Dusty - No Good Truckin' Man lyrics

Now Billy was a truckin' man always movin' freight His only love was on the road hauling interstate He tried his best to settle down but nothin' went to plan So Billy wore the handle of that no good truckin' man Now Jenny was the kind of girl who liked to stay at home And Billy was a ramblin' man always on the road She knew he'd never change his ways that couldn't be her luck His home was on the highway in the cabin of his truck Yes Billy was a truckin' man always movin' freight His only love was on the road hauling interstate He tried his best to settle down but nothin' went to plan So Billy wore the handle of that no good truckin' man hey! Now Jenny grew despondent for she felt so all alone And started seeing someone else when Billy wasn't home His smooth sophisticated ways had won him Jenny's hand But Jenny missed the lovin' of her no good truckin' man Now Billy heard the rumour so he headed back one night The strangers car was leaving in the early mornin' light Oh what then really happened well there's all kinds of debates But Billy swears until this day the old rig lost her brakes hey Hey Billy was a truckin' man always movin' freight His only love was on the road hauling interstate He tried his best to settle down but nothin' went to plan So Billy wore the handle of that no good truckin' man Yes Billy wore the handle of that no good truckin' man
