Well they told me tonight that kelly's offsider just died |
| [00:24.84] |
I put my head in my hands |
| [00:26.49] |
And I just couldn't help but I cried |
| [00:31.37] |
And there's no use you telling me now |
| [00:33.70] |
That's the way of all life |
| [00:37.65] |
We're kind of different with kelly |
| [00:39.45] |
Cause the offsider was his wife |
| [00:44.07] |
It was just a nickname the truckies all knew her by |
| [00:50.41] |
We'd all give her a wave |
| [00:52.11] |
And a blast of the horn as we'd fly |
| [00:56.88] |
And if kelly pulled over |
| [00:58.42] |
And stopped by the road for a spell |
| [01:03.22] |
Kelly's grin and the offsider's smile |
| [01:06.75] |
Made us pull in as well |
| [01:09.40] |
Well the off sider rode all of the highways |
| [01:12.60] |
There were to ride |
| [01:16.18] |
Nowhere in the world was she happy but by kelly's side |
| [01:22.51] |
An after a while we all said |
| [01:24.57] |
That she brought us good luck |
| [01:28.54] |
But to them the whole world |
| [01:30.29] |
Was the cabin of a roaring truck |
| [01:47.70] |
So it's hard to take in that kelly's offsider just died |
| [01:54.51] |
But kelly's gonna take his offsider for one last ride |
| [02:00.54] |
With a casket of ashes an a semi that's rolling slow |
| [02:07.00] |
Kelly's heading for a place on the highway |
| [02:09.66] |
The truckies all know |
| [02:13.16] |
And he'll be leaving her where the tall trees bend an sigh |
| [02:19.53] |
Where she won't be lonely |
| [02:21.40] |
Cause she'll hear the big wheels rolling by |
| [02:25.87] |
And the sound of the horns from the trucks |
| [02:28.59] |
Passing day and night |
| [02:32.88] |
Kelly's offsider will be riding with him 'til he died |
| [02:38.64] |
Well they told me tonight that kelly's offsider just died |
| [02:44.98] |
I put my head in my hands |
| [02:47.32] |
And I just couldn't help but I cried |
| [02:51.42] |
And it's no use you telling me now |
| [02:53.76] |
That's the way of all life |
| [02:57.65] |
Kind a different with kelly |
| [02:59.37] |
Cause the offsider was his wife |
| [03:04.32] |
Oh kind a different with kelly |
| [03:05.81] |
Cause the offsider was his wife |
