The Trucker's Prayer

The Trucker's Prayer Folk, Storytelling, Acoustic Guitar, male vocals [ Acoustic Guitar,Intro] [Verse 1] Truckin' down the highway, rollin' miles so wide With a heavy load behind me, I'm a trucker with pride Through rain and shine, I drive day and night Delivering goods, keepin' the economy tight [Chorus 1] Oh, I'm a trucker, a knight of the road Carryin' dreams and hopes, heavy is my load Lord, guide my path, keep me safe and sound On this journey through miles unbound [Verse 2] The diesel engine hums, my constant companion The airwaves crackle, my only conversation I see the world from this cabin high Witnessing sunsets, stars that paint the sky [Chorus 2] Oh, I'm a trucker, a knight of the road Carryin' dreams and hopes, heavy is my load Lord, guide my path, keep me safe and sound On this journey through miles unbound [ Acoustic Guitar Solo] [Bridge] They call us reckless, dangers on the road But we're just working folks, quickly haulin' our loads We move the groceries, the medicines, the products Without us, this country would have empty pockets [Verse 3] Miles and miles behind me, a lifetime spent on wheels The road's my home, where my spirit feels I've seen the best and worst of life's terrain And through it all, Its never been in vain [Chorus] Oh, I'm a trucker, a knight of the road Carryin' dreams and hopes, heavy is my load Lord, guide my path, keep me safe and sound On this journey through miles unbound [Outro] So here's to all the truckers, drivin' through the night May our engines roar with strength and might And when we reach our destination's end May we know that we have made a difference they'll defend [Acoustic Guitar Riff] [Ending] [End]
