	An Honorable Mention winner in the 2001 John Lennon Song Contest. An upbeat discription of the "Truckin" life.
	Story Behind the Song I've always liked "Truck Driving Songs. Sometime in the early 1980s I decided to write one. I don't really know what came first, the title or the line "I ain't driving no slow load". Whichever it was, it just kept growing. When I started building the music, I was looking for a road sound feel with changes of pace appropriate to the lyrics Lyrics Truck Driving Fool I ain't driving no slow load. Then, again, I'm in no hurry. At the end of the line, I got no place to go, But that ain't no cause for worry. That ain't no cause to worry. I feel no need of having a home, Or something, sure to come home to. I'm not afraid of being alone, And most of the time I don't have to. Most of the time I don't have to. I'm a truck driving fool. I've got this urge to roam. I'm a truck driving fool. The highway is my home. The highway is my home. Roaming from Portland to Miami, From New York, down to Frisco Bay. I never worry much 'bout Ol' Smoky, 'Cause I usually can stay out of his way. I usually can stay out of his way. Now, sometimes, I'll meet a real woman, Who wants me to come and settle down. I tell her it's no good 'cause I'm a truck driving fool, But, I see her, whenever I'm in town. I see her, whenever I'm in town. And sometimes, I get weary. Sometimes the business is slow, But weariness will pass, when I step on the gas. There always seems to be another load. There always seems to be another load. I'm a truck driving fool. I've got this urge to roam. I'm a truck driving fool. The highway is my home. The highway is my home.
