That long thin dawn | |
That long thin dawn | |
Is comin' on again | |
I've seen the hills of frisco and the streets of montreal | |
In every town i've been to i've had someone to call | |
From winnipeg to edmonton, vancouver to st. paul | |
I've had so many good friends i couldn't miss them all | |
And that long thin dawn | |
That long thin dawn | |
Is comin' on again | |
Last night i came to denver beneath the snow-capped ridge | |
I thought about my darlin' as i stood beneath the bridge | |
And there were times i made her cry but i guess by now she's learned | |
That any time i've wandered i always have returned | |
And that long thin dawn | |
That long thin dawn | |
Is comin' on again | |
Right now i'm on a highway just east of omaha | |
Riding shotgun on the biggest rig you ever saw | |
With forty tons of pig iron and a trucker known as bill | |
All the way to windsor, we've got some miles to kill | |
And that long thin dawn | |
That long thin dawn | |
Is comin' on again | |
While climbin' up a hillside, bill drops 'er down a gear | |
And the engine sings so sweetly 'tis music to my ear | |
I tell him how i long to be just like him if i can | |
Drivin' like the restless wind across this precious land | |
Says bill 'the air is clean tonight' as he puffs a big cigar | |
'and if this rig keeps rollin', my boy you'll travel far | |
But when you are a trucker you'll come to realize | |
The only thing a man can do is watch the world go by' | |
And that long thin dawn | |
That long thin dawn | |
Is comin' on again | |
That long thin dawn | |
That long thin dawn | |
Is comin' on again |
