Lyrics and translation
Original
Hey, 18 wheeler flying like a free bird, hammering down 'cause your time is cash.
Little white Lexus rolling off the exit for a Dr Pepper and a tank of gas.
Another state on a plate, just passing through. Yeah, I kinda feel sorry for you.
They'll never know your name at the no-name bar.
Best cover band, no cover charge.
Never get to watch your home team play.
Yeah, I hear this year they might take state.
Take a left right past the pines for the prettiest girls that you'll ever find.
Channel cat on the line and a good peace of mind kinda living. Buddy, you don't know what you're missing.
Hey there, jet plane on your way to LA. No, you ain't got a clue up there.
'Bout a little white church and a little red dirt, and some corn at the county fair.
If you don't break down, you'll never see why none of us wanna leave.
They'll never know your name at the no-name bar.
Best cover band, no cover charge.
Never get to watch your home team play.
Yeah, I hear this year they might take state.
Take a left right past the pines for the prettiest girls that you'll ever find.
Channel cat on the line and a good peace of mind kinda living.
Buddy, you don't know what you're missing.
The sun going down while you're fishing.
Sound of them wood ducks whistling.
Yeah, I know you work and your wheels gonna keep on spinning.
They'll never know your name at the no-name bar.
Best cover band, no cover charge.
Never get to watch your home team play.
Yeah, I hear this year they might take state.
Take a left right past the pines for the prettiest girls that you'll ever find.
Channel cat on the line and a good peace of mind kinda living.
I wish you'd just slow down and stick around for a minute.
Buddy, you don't know what you're missing.
Yeah, you don't know what you're missing.
No, you don't.
Woo!
