lirik lagu george morgan - man behind the wheel
so many times, as a little boy
i sat and watched, and marveled, and day~dreamed
of how someday i’d like to be the man behind the wheel of a big truck
hearin’ the sound of their mighty motors as they’d roar down the road
well, that dream never came true for me
yet, though, now i’m a man
i’ve done my share of travel
and now, many years later, i still get that feelin’ of power and command
every time i see a big truck go by
now, each man has a talent
and though my talent didn’t follow my daydreams
i still admire the talent of that man behind the wheel
you just think for a minute what it takes to handle one of those big rigs
it takes judgment, timing, being alert, courtesy, strength
and a whole lotta determination
truck drivin’ is really a world of its own
and, sometimes it’s a lonely world
bein’ away from home for days or weeks at a time
i’ve met a lotta these men, and believe me, they’re a special kind of men
there’re the men who have families, and are dedicated to their homes
and then there are the men who don’t have families
men who just love the road, and like to be on the go
it gives them that untied feelin’
free, goin’ somewhere, seein’ new places
and, new faces, a pretty waitress maybe
listenin’ to a jukebox while he’s havin’ coffee and pie, and …
well, in some truck stop a long, long way from home
and you know somethin’? that man behind the wheel lives by a code
unwritten perhaps, but it’s a code just the same
and that is, that the man behind the wheel watches over the lives of everyone he meets on our highways
you probably remember a story in the newspapers a short time ago
about the truckdriver who overturned his truck in a ditch
givin’ his life to keep from hittin’ a little girl
who had darted across the road in front of him
yes, we all owe the man behind the wheel a salute
just look how the truck has helped build this great land of ours
and the man who drives that truck might be the man next door
he might by your sister sally’s boyfriend
or he just might be your uncle jim
anyway, if he’s a truckdriver, he’s a very important part
of america’s way of life
the man behind the wheel
