“Dispatched”

A new song I wrote about trucking…

“Dispatched”

Yoa, come go across the world with me
We got everything we need
See you in Tulsa or Glenwood Springs
Show me all my favorite things
Cross into the Golden State
Donner Pass the night away
Meet in Williams for a date
Captain, kiddo, and first mate

I watch the clock, the hour’s near
I cannot stop ‘til I’m in the clear
Construction zone, the route is tight
Better get the load back to Knight

Headed east to get the jeans
Got detained or so it seems
Lumpers, slumpers wasting time
Graffiti tagging every sign
Carolinas round the bend
Here comes the rain again
Must escape the weather warning
Amarillo by morning

I watch the clock, the hour’s near
I cannot stop ‘til I’m in the clear
Construction zone, the route is tight
Better get the load back to Knight

Hit the cruise and rub my eyes
Getting past the Great Divide
Helped a man down on his luck and
I just gotta keep on trucking

Yoa, I wanna show ya
Everything there is to see
Time to weigh in life’s new load
Home sweet home, humble aboad
