Red Simpson - Piggyback Blues Lyrics

I got the piggyback blues what's a feller to do

When the cab of a truck's been his home

I got the piggyback I gotta change my ways cause the long old hauls're gone



Well the boss called us in about a month ago said fellow the long hauls're through

Take your trailer to the railroad yard there's a flat car waitin' for you

There's a flat car a waitin' for you

I'd like to see Mary in Abilene and Susie in Omaha

I'd like to see Jeannie in Albequerk' and Betty in Wichita and Betty in Wichita

I got the piggyback blues...

[ guitar ]

Well these piggyback cars're gonna change my life I'll have to start to slippin' around

I'll have to get the kitch that I miss so much in the places on the outskirts of town

Yeah the places on the outskirts of town

I got the piggyback blues...
