Hammer down the open road
steel pigs my only load
country songs are always playin'
he's a goin', she's a staying
briquets keep the fires burning
diesel keeps the wheels turning
hikers on the edge of town
start off young and end up learning
Shipping steel, shipping steel . . .
nobody knows, the way it feels
caught between heaven and the highway
shipping steel, shipping steel . . .
Some men need a family
need the club fraternity
god's salvation guaranteed
mac's the only friend i need
