Lyrics

[Verse 1] I've been driving these back roads For twenty odd years Delivering these goods To town after town I'm union I'm black I've got a wife and two kids I'll put 'em through college Dragging this trailer around [Verse 2] Now I've been in hundreds of these places That dot these dark highways They stay open all night With their bright neon signs They're a welcome oasis For us lonesome old drivers We pull up our diesels With red bleary eyes [Pre-Chorus] So I stop for the papеr And that good cup of coffee And I read and remembеr How quickly things change But a slap on the back s Someone says "Hey bro' what's happenin'" It come from so many, lord And I don't know their names [Chorus] But it's nothing you notice And you can't understand So I keep to the right Of the broken white line But my eyes are still wandering 'Cause I'll always be looking for that Good cup of coffee [Verse 3] Now I can sit at this counter Get served in a minute Small talk the weather Or say nothing at all But it's there, I can feel it From many years past saying If left up to me I wouldn't serve you at all [Verse 4] Now I'll take it black or with cream And any old sweetener The hotter the better But warm is okay I'd even choke down a donut Fold up my paper Pay my buck fifty And be on my way [Pre-Chorus] Well it might seem the same For both you and me The check and a smile That says have a nice day But as I climb up into my cab I adjust my rear view mirror And I notice my color [Chorus] But it's nothing you notice And you can't understand So I keep to the right Of the broken white line But my eyes are still wandering 'Cause I'll always be looking Eternally searching for it I'm always looking for that Good cup of coffee
