I'm going down to Feather River Canyon gotta go down Dinner Some it is closed Another eighty miles and I sure am lonesome cause I'll be late gettin' home Roll truck roll take me to my baby I'm tired of bein' alone Roll truck roll I wanna see my baby roll me truck roll me on home One of these days I'm gonna quit this old road when I've saved enough money Gonna buy me a place back home and live a little just me and my kids and my honey Mama said that little Tom is not doing too well in school Said he keeps talking about his daddy that he hardly knows The teacher said that he just sits at his desk all day And draws the pictures of trucks I guess I know what that means and what it shows Why I'm not home three months out of the year And here lately it's showing on me too Oh I saw a lot of the country at first and I really like it then But anymore there's just none of it new Oh what a long old haul this has been and that rain most of the way And now it's beginning to pour Sure looks cold that wind blowing up through that canyon But I gotta keep my spirits up so I guess I'll just sing a little more I'm going down to Feather River Canyon...
