Lyrics

Got a pair of snakeskin boots and a mullet hairdo
Well he’s got an eagle and a skull tattoo
A fast drivin’, hard livin’ outlaw on the run
Got a gun rack in his truck for his 12-gauge shotgun

Six days on the road
And man, you know he’ll go six more
No time for love
Just a local truck stop whore
And he don’t even use no cream or sugar in his coffee
He’s missin’ some teeth, it ain’t from playin’ hockey

He’s a methed out trucker
Yeah, he’s a methed out trucker
Methed out trucker
Yeah, he’s a methed out trucker, yeah

Loves Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson and the King
He’s also a fan of Penthouse and Playboy magazine
Every morning he wakes up and takes a shot of Jim Beam
And he don’t waste any time lining up some methamphetamine

Six o’clock he’s on the road
That’s how he starts his day
When you see him comin’ down the line
Better get out of his way
Well he flies on down the road
About a hundred miles an hour
18 wheels a rollin’ with that Peterbuilt power

He’s a methed out trucker
Yeah, he’s a methed out trucker
Methed out trucker
Yeah, he’s a methed out trucker, yeah

Been down every route from NYC down to LA
Well he’s probably stayed at every Motel 6 and Flying J
Avoids the pickle parks and all the gators on the way
Stop in at any time and everybody knows his name

Well now you know the tale of a Texas outlaw on the run
Don’t stare at him too long he’s liable to use that ol’ shotgun
Don’t make this cowboy mad or talk about his dear ol’ mother
He’ll put his foot right in your ass
‘Cause he’s one bad motherfucker

He’s a methed out trucker
Yeah, he’s a methed out trucker
Methed out trucker
Yeah, he’s a methed out trucker
Gonna ride the streets tonight
Methed out trucker just might get into a fight
Methed out trucker gonna do a couple rails tonight
