    My husband was a truck driver for 33 years.. he passed away 2 years ago (5/29/12) and I can say he would have loved this! I can see him in my mind singing along with this! Thank you!!!

    Love this!!!!!! So true. Until you've been in a truck and lived it, you have no idea how much patience it takes to keep a smile on your face and handle all the crap that comes with the job.....

      and then the dock light finally turns green, so you grab your clipboard and hurry inside just to find out they've all gone lunch and ain't nothing around but a bunch of silent forklifts.

    I was a fork truck driver unloading trailers. We were very busy with what was asked of us. Great song. You are reopening the trucker song genre. Goodness knows that truckers have it rough this day in time and need a voice to speak out their woes. Keep on trucking.

    My truckdriving husband got out kids hooked on this song. Now my 16 and 17 year olds wont stop walking around. When the 17 year old gets on youtube this is the first song we hear. Your amazing Brad! Keep up the great music. Maybe you should do Convoy or Smokey and The Bandit. You could really do good at those I think.

    Nice voice, good tune. I feel your pain. 10 year veteran out here delivering the goods, that keep America going. How truly unappreciated our industry is. How few realize the high cost not only financially, but personally we truckers face living on the road. I wish people knew, or even cared about some of the ridiculous regulations we face to bring them what they need to live. I wouldn't rather be doing anything else though. I love my life on the road. Thanks for bringing some joy to trucking. Peace

    Hubby and I were OTR Team and this song rings SOOOOOO true. Love it. Now I'm a fleet manager and he is a recovery driver. No more dock sitting for us for a while. Georgia Pacific and ANY food distribution center were our worse enemies. Be safe out there brother. Rubber down between the mayo and mustard!

  • @17br549

    I Love this one and I know all the truckers out there will really go for this one cause its true. That's the worse part of trucking and it sucks all the waiting and many other things I won't mention. Least you have something to occupy your time that other people can enjoy that don't hold a wheel in their hand for a living. You are great thanks for sharing your talent with the world.
