Lyrics
One Lane White Line Driver
Verse I
He met her down in Dallas at the Double D Truck café
waitin tables for a living with one child on the way
$5.35 an hour won’t hardly pay the rent
and the money that she’s making well its already spent
She still has her dream of a love she thought would last.
But the memories of the good life keep fadin fast
Chorus
He’s a one lane white line driver running from his past.
She’s out there and he’s somewhere taken that highway back
He’s a one lane white line driver Heading down hard and fast
But this damn road takes its toll this nowhere road can’t last, it just can’t last
Verse II
Just outside of Denver where September brought the fall.
With a tired heart and a broken soul he stops to make a call
He can’t explain these feelings he has so deep inside.
Her voice on the other end he can hear her cry
Verse III
She hangs her head in sorrow as another night goes by.
She dreams about tomorrow with a teardrop in her eye
18 wheels makes a sweet sound like a soft sung lullaby.
Should she believe him or was it just a lie
In the early morning outside her window pane.
She hears the sound of footsteps or is it just the rain
