[Bb]
[Eb] Those hard-driving truckers, dear Chairman, day and night, have got a real tough job to [Bb] stand up to.
High-falling down a highway in a big long diesel rig is not a job just anyone [Eb] can do.
But there's a lot of credit due to a fine group of girls.
They're the truckers' wives who wait [Bb] for their men
When they kiss them goodbye and watch the taillights fade, it's a lonely wait until they're [Eb] home again.
[Ab] He may be gone three days or maybe two weeks, [F] and everything is left [Bb] in her care.
Like paying bills and cutting grass and fixing kids their meals, she's the woman behind the man [Eb] behind the wheel.
[Bb]
[Eb] This special breed of woman has to share a love affair with that long stretch of highway [Bb] on his mind.
But she knows that he loves her more than anything.
She's a trucker's wife and that's the [Eb] greatest kind.
And as he sips his coffee, you can bet she's on his mind.
Oh, and he's driving down that highway [Bb] all alone.
And that sleeper sure gets lonely parked at a big truck stop compared to being in her [Cm] arms at home.
[Ab] Now we've sung songs and phrases about the trucking man [F] and their truth, but let's save one [Bb] little spiel.
For all the truckers' wives, because after all, she's the woman behind the man behind [Eb] the wheel.
