charlie walker - truck drivin' cat with nine wives lyrics
[chorus]
he was a truck drivin’ man
this cat, he had nine wives
a wife in every state from caroline to california
and he took all the women for a ride
[verse 1]
he kissed a different one goodbye each mornin’
and then he would be on his way
with a little pleasure along highway 80
it took him nine days to cross the usa
now sometimes he was a little confused
walking ’round like he was in a fog
he couldn’t remember all their names
so he wrote ’em all down in his log
[chorus]
he was a truck drivin’ man
this cat, he had nine wives
a wife in every state from caroline to california
and he took all the women for a ride
[verse 2]
then one day it had to happen
he ran off a mountainside
they looked at his log and they found
nine women had to be notified
the women, they came with all their children
each one looked and said, “that’s my pa”
the women, they finally agreed
that they were just widows-in-law
now that the funeral is over
his belongin’s, they were divided up
you ought to have seen those little women
cuttin’ up that old diesel truck
[chorus]
he was a truck drivin’ man
this cat, he had nine wives
a wife in every state from caroline to california
and he took all the women for a ride
he was a truck drivin’ man
this cat, he had nine wives
a wife in every state from caroline to california
and he took all the women for a ride
