I've Trucked All Over This Land

C.W. McCall

[Clap your hands and stomp your feet.]



Well, I've walked the line on 89

In the Arizona sun

I've chased the moon and I've caught a star

On U.S. one-oh-one

I've seen the sights from the Northern Lights

To the bend in the Rio Grande

I've took in a lot of this U.S.A.

'Cause I've trucked all over this land



[Start the banjo pickin'.]



Well, I've changed a tire by the light of a fire

On the rock-bound coast of Maine

I've shoveled snow up in Idaho

From Maine to the Rio Grande

I've paid the price of a truckin' life

But I've trucked all over this land



[More banjo pickin' here.]



I've said a prayer as I climbed the stairs

On the Rocky Mountain side

I've learned the words and I've sung my song

And I've travelled far and wide

I've fought the fight and I've done all right

For the likes of a wanderin' man

I've paid the price of a truckin' life

But I've trucked all over this land



[Chorus]

Well, I've trucked all over this land

From Maine to the Rio Grande

I've paid the price of a t
