Truck Stop Girl Lyrics

-- Bill Payne, Lowell George 

His tail-lights flickered as he pulled up to the truck stop 
The same old crowd was hanging out again tonite 
He said fill up my tank while I go check my load 
It feels like it's shifting all around 

He was the kind of man 
Do all he could 
Above all he had integrity 
But he was so young 
And on a ten city run 
In love with a truck stop girl 

As he went inside hew was merrily greeted 
By the girl with who he was in love 
She held out a glass and said have another 
This is the last time we can meet 

With her hair piled up high and a look in her eye 
That would turn any good man's blood to wine 
All his eyes could see, all his eyes could see 
Was the stares from all those around him 

He ran out to the lot and climbed into his rig 
And drove off without tightening down 
It was a terrible thing 
To see what remained of the rig that poor danny was in 

But he was so young 
On a ten city run 
In love with a truck stop girl 

But he was so young 
On a ten city run 
In love with a truck stop girl
