I sold my old Camaro
I sold my fishing boat
A friend said he would cosign
On a small commercial loan
So I shopped around until I found
A rig within my means
I put fifteen thousand dollars down
On the Kenworth of my dreams
My sister s husband helped me out
When we took the thing apart
Every bolt and piston
I knew them all by heart
We cleaned her out and painted her
And brought her up to speed
I proudly put my name upon
The Kenworth of my dreams
But sometimes late at night
Out on some interstate
I hear those sad country songs
True love found, true love gone
Lately I just turn the damn thing off
A lot of folks just shook their heads
Convinced that I d lost mine
They said living in a God-damned truck
Is just a waste of time
That to spend yhour life behind the wheel
Ain t as great as it might seem
I just thanked them all and left one night
In the Kenworth of my dreams
But sometimes late at night
Out on some interstate
I hear those sad country songs
True love found, true love gone
Lately I just turn the damn thing off
Business, it s been pretty good
I ve no cause to complain
I haul bourbon up to Buffalo
And frozen foods to Maine
Toxic waste or Quaker State
It s all the same to me
I ll go anywhere for anything
In the Kenworth of my dreams...
