The Veils - King of Chrome lyrics
[The Veils - King of Chrome lyrics]
Well he’s tearing a line down that open road
He’s got a Hotchkiss Shaft and 9 tonne load
No thing in Hell nor Heaven can
Match this king of chrome
He clenches his knuckles around
The steering wheel it’s been 18 years since
His last home-cooked meal
He used to swim around naked with
The fish and the foam
He’s got white noise blaring
From his cabin door
He ain’t seen his own mother since 1984
And he likes his meat served red
Straight off the bone
He’s out there searching for
That missing part
He’s got an eye for trouble
And a broken heart
He don’t know where he’s going but
He ain’t never going home
Truck driver oh truck driver
Last of the midnight riders
What do you dream in the night all alone?
Truck driver oh truck driver
First of your kind, now the sole survivor
Where are you heading in the night all alone?
Endless highways all leading up
He drinks elixir from a plastic cup
Oh sing it out loud, baby, sing it low
Truck driver oh truck driver
First of your kind, now the sole survivor
Where are you heading in the night all alone?
He’s got a Hotchkiss Shaft and 9 tonne load
No thing in Hell nor Heaven can
Match this king of chrome
He clenches his knuckles around
The steering wheel it’s been 18 years since
His last home-cooked meal
He used to swim around naked with
The fish and the foam
He’s got white noise blaring
From his cabin door
He ain’t seen his own mother since 1984
And he likes his meat served red
Straight off the bone
He’s out there searching for
That missing part
He’s got an eye for trouble
And a broken heart
He don’t know where he’s going but
He ain’t never going home
Truck driver oh truck driver
Last of the midnight riders
What do you dream in the night all alone?
Truck driver oh truck driver
First of your kind, now the sole survivor
Where are you heading in the night all alone?
Endless highways all leading up
He drinks elixir from a plastic cup
Oh sing it out loud, baby, sing it low
Truck driver oh truck driver
First of your kind, now the sole survivor
Where are you heading in the night all alone?
