Peterbilt drivers don't pick up low riders   They don't slow for the curves in the road   They hate to keep logs, they hate riders on hogs   Watch out for a shift in your load      When I was young, I had Gene Autry guns   But I never had a Lionel train   Now I've got a truck, if I keep payments up   And it weighs thirty tons in the rain      I wear Frisco jeans with riveted seams   My money is chained to my belt   I wear a Cat cap just like my pap   He drove till it ruined his health      Now, Georgia Bill Smith wore thick glasses and boots   He could see 'bout as far as he could walk   He came up too fast on that bridge overpass   Lord, the preacher sure gave a fine talk      When I was young, I had Gene Autry guns   But I never had a Lionel train   Now I've got a truck if I keep payments up   And it weighs thirty tons in the rain      I've read a few lines from the poets   And sometimes, I might cross the line   I don't know the answer to the mystery of life   But a woman sure helps pass the time      When I was young, I had Gene Autry guns   But I never had a Lionel train   Now I've got a truck if I keep payments up   And it weighs thirty tons in the rain      When I was young, I had Gene Autry guns   But I never had a Lionel train   Now I've got a truck if I keep payments up   And it weighs thirty tons in the rain
