[B] [E] [A]
They say I gotta be half crazy to be [B] doing what I do
[E] I'm a slap-happy, gear-jamming, coffee-drinking, [A] truck-driving fool
[E] [A] I might have a little shimmy in this crackerbox, [B] Jimmy, but I ain't never cracked up yet
[D] The more I try to make a [A] buck in this [F#] beat-up [B] truck, the more [E] semi [A]-crazy I get
Yeah, I'm [D] semi-crazy, I gotta [A] be half nuts
To keep a-running up and down the [B] road in these [E] semi-trucks
I [D] might have had half a mind to slow it down for a [A] time
But I'm never gonna [F#] gear it up till I'm [D] pushing up daisy
[E] I'll be [A] semi-crazy
I'm [B] [E] [C] [A]
just a truck-driving fool who never finished [B] school
I got my learning at the old clutch [D#] stop
[E] They said I won't amount to much when a gear shift and a [A] clutch was the only education I [E] got
[A] I'm just an old blue-collar, semi-crazy, road [B] scholar
They tell me that I'm half insane, [D] that I've been driving so [Am] long
I got [F#] diesel in my [B] blood and [E] ninety-weight [A] oil on my brain
Cause I'm [D] semi-crazy
Yeah, [A] about half nuts
To keep a-running up and down the [B] road in these [E] semi-trucks
[Em] [D] I might have had half a mind to slow it down for a [A] time
But I'm never gonna [F#] gear it up till I'm [D] pushing up daisy
[Em]
I'll be [A] semi-crazy
[B] [E]
[A] Everybody says we're dingy cause we're too semi [B]-crazy to stop
[E] That's the handle that we're stuck with no matter if we like it or [Am] not
[A] Through the desert and the mountains, the sunshine, [B] the rain and the snow
We'll [D] be double clutching [A] that distiller [F#] over the [B] hill
And we're [E] never gonna [A] take it slow
Cause we're [D] semi-crazy
We gotta be half [A] nuts
To keep a-running up and down the [B] road in these [E] semi-trucks
[D] They might have had half a mind to slow it down for a [A] time
But we're never gonna [F#] gear it up till we're [D] pushing up daisy
[E] We'll be [A] semi [G#]-crazy
[F#] Till they [D] put us in the ground
[E] They'll never [A] shut us down
[F#] Till we're [D] six feet under
[Em] [E] We'll be [A] rolling thunder
[Am] [A]
