{Verse 1}
A
Well when I was just a little bitty kid
D
I remember one time Mommy said
E A
Daddy sends you all his love, from 'Frisco Bay
A
Well I didn't understand till I was grown
D
Why my Daddy didn't spend a little time at home
E A
Instead of running round the country that way
{Chorus}
A E
Oh I'm looking at the world through a windshield
A
Seeing everything in a little bit different light
[Watching it fly by me on the right]
D7
I got a sweet little thing that I'm dying to see in Nashville
E A
And I'm down around Dallas and rolling on south tonight
Intro Riff
{Verse 2}
Well long strips of rubber that you see
Were burnt off of this rig by the likes of me
And they'll rot along the highways in this land
I'm gonna write my name in this diesel smoke
And let the ones that come along behind me choke
And try to keep this pace I'm setting anytime that they can
{Chorus}
{Verse 3}
Well I push this rig through the sleet and rain
And I've driven through the rough terrain
Of the rockies to the docks of old L.A.
On down that old pacific shore
I swing north and head for Baltimore
Or some place 'bout 2000 miles away
{Chorus}
E A
And I'm down around Dallas and rolling on south tonight

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official SON VOLT tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
