Tombstone Every Mile

Lyrics

All you big and burly men who roll the trucks along Listen, you'll be thankful when you hear my song You've really got it made if you're haulin' goods Anyplace on Earth except those Haynesville woods It's a stretch of road up north in Maine That's never, ever, ever seen a smile If they buried all the truckers lost in them woods There'd be a tombstone every mile When you're loaded with potatoes and you're drivin' down You've gotta drive that road to get to Boston town When it's winter up in Maine, better think it over twice That Haynesville road is just a ribbon of ice It's a stretch of road up north in Maine That's never, ever, ever seen a smile When they buried all the truckers lost in them woods There'd be a tombstone every mile When you're talkin' to a trucker that's been haulin' goods Along that stretch of road they call the Haynesville woods He'll tell you that dyin' and goin' down below Is not as bad as drivin' on that road of ice and snow It's a stretch of road up north in Maine That's never, ever, ever seen a smile If they buried all the truckers lost in them woods There'd be a tombstone every mile There'd be a tombstone every mile
