Crackerbox Jimmy - A 3406 and a 12513 Lyrics

Started running local when I was just 19
Visions of mountains and truck stops filled my dreams
I'd be driving a truck with big chrome stacks
A double bunk and my lady in the back
I'd get the job done and you know what I mean
With a 3406 and a 12513

Saw it on the pages of Overdrive magazine
Was the prettiest truck that I'd ever seen
Had leather on the dash and chrome on the wheel
A model in the seat too good looking to be real
It got the job done and you know what I mean
With a 3406 and a 12513

Drove a few trucks that were coming apart at the seams
They were rougher and more ragged than a pair of my old bluejeans
Freight was a-shaking to the top of the grade
The tiny 290 should have never been made
I wished I was driving that truck of my dreams
With a 3406 and a 12513

She was a red Peterbilt and she made the other drivers green
Whoever owned her before kept her really clean
Shop didn't know if she had a top end
I backer her down at a hundred and ten
Finally got to drive that truck of my dreams
With a 3406 and a 12513

Started running local when I was just 19
Visions of mountains and truck stops filled my dreams
I'd be driving a truck with big chrome stacks
A double bunk and my lady in the back
I'd get the job done and you know what I mean
With a 3406 and a 12513

Get the job done and you know what I mean
With a 3406 and a 12513
Get the job done and you know what I mean
With a 3406 and a 12513
Get the job done and you know what I mean
With a 3406 and a 12513
