about

Inspired by my Pop, the truck driver, his love of country music, and of course, the good lord himself.

lyrics

I drove this rig 'round 47 states,
6 provinces and half of Mexico
The good Lord kept me awake, kept my foot off the brake
So, 18 hours more, and I'll be home

God, just keep me up, keep my hand on the wheel
Keep my eyes on the road
'Cause it would be a shame to die here
Out on the Kansas line
Dear God, send an angel to lead me home.

That's right, I'm going home to Georgia
I'm going home to pick a peach
And I ain't ever gonna roam,
Where that fine looking woman
Ain't within my reach

Well, the good Lord saw it fit
To bless me with 15 kids, a dog, an acre, and a wife
And though some men might hold spite
I thank him every night, for the joy that he's brought into my life.

I just watch that holy smile, with every passing mile
The one that makes me feel reborn
I got one eye on the road and another on the load
And one in the sky to lead me home
