“Monsters on the Road”
Lyrics by Dennis Genovese
Music by Dennis Genovese, Chrissy Pace, & Kia Ward
© American Trucker Publishing 1999


(Verse 1)
Running hard thru the foggy night, waiting on a bit of morning light
Loosing time but it makes no sense
To be hammered down when there ain’t much sight
No appointment can be worth the risk, of maybe hurting someone's wife or kids
So you've got to take it on the chin, if you get there late, they'll just have to wait

(Verse 2)
Don't be early don't be late, don't be over axle weight
And whatever comes along you will take the blame, whether right or wrong
Haven't had a bite to eat; sure ain't had enough to sleep
And as I light another smoke, I can't help laughing what a joke!

(Chorus)
American Trucker; monsters on the road they say
American Trucker; lifeline of the U.S.A.

(Verse 3)
If safety is of real concern, the F.H.A. has lots to learn
With all the rules and regs they write they've never asked for our insight

(Chorus)
American trucker, fighting a bad rep today
American trucker, lifeline of the U.S.A.

(Final verse)
The slowpoke in the center lane, He wants to play a deadly game
He won't move right and let you by, and you can't use the hammer lane
Every driver should obey, the rules and regs that stand today
It wouldn't take a working week to knock this country off its feet.
American trucker, what do you say, what do you say.
