I got the piggyback blues what's a feller could 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 are gone Well the boss called us in about a month ago Said fellows the long hauls are 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 are 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...
