Lyrics: Townes Van Zandt
Music: Townes Van Zandt
Sung by Ross James and Brian Lesh with Phil Lesh and the Terrapin Family Band in 2013.
I'm goin out on the highway, listen to them big trucks whine
I'm goin out on the highway, listen to them big trucks whine
White freightliner won't you steal away my mind
New Mexico ain't bad, lord, people here they treat you kind
New Mexico ain't bad, lord, people here they treat you kind
White freightliner won't you steal away my mind
Well, it's bad news from Houston, half my friends are dying
Well, it's bad news from Houston, half my friends are dying
White freightliner won't you steal away my mind
Well, lord, I'm gonna ramble till I get back to where I came
Well, lord, I'm gonna ramble till I get back to where I came
White freightliner gonna haul away my brain
I'm goin out on the highway, listen to them big trucks whine
I'm goin out on the highway, listen to them big trucks whine
White freightliner won't you steal away my mind
White freightliner won't you steal away my mind
