GRAPELINES




Moby Grape - Trucking Man
(R. Mosley)

A truckin' man
Is man's best friend
Cause he's the backbone of the fatherland
You're having trouble, shut down on the road
He's there to lend a helping hand

Got a smile on his face
He loves 'em, yes he does
Everyone on the road
He's working all day and he's working all night
Carryin' his country's his load

Now, see him up there
Sitting so high
How many miles on them wheels?
He's working vacations
Holidays packin' with the boss man dead at his heels

I got to get movin'
Gotta get to it, hear me
Got to get to travelin', get gone
It's a hard way working and knockin' 'em down
Before the trucking man working goes on

I got to get movin'
Gotta get to it, hear me
Got to get travelin', get gone
It's a hard way working and knockin' 'em down
Before the trucking man working goes on

It's a hard way working and knockin' 'em down
Before the trucking man working goes on...





Moby Grape - Silver Wheels
(P. Lewis/V. Menga)

Silver wheels, keep on turnin'
You've got to bring my baby back to me
Upon my heels,her love is burnin'
And I need her here to keep me company

I have been standing here, staring down the tracks
Since early mornin' yesterday
When she up and left me without even looking back
Before she went upon her way

Silver wheels, keep on turnin'
You've got to bring my baby back to me
Upon her heels, my love is burnin'
And I need her here to keep me company

I hope I can remember the words that I had planned
To tell her just the way I feel
She will forgive me, I know she'll understand
That my love for her is real
