      [Intro]
G  Bb  C  Bb  G (x2)

[Verse 1]
      G
I'm a road man, a load man
Bb
18 wheels and a serious plan
      C
Ain't nothing gonna go gettin' outa hand
      Bb  C          G
While I'm behind the wheel
G
I'm on fire, and I'm wired
Bb
Full of diesel and ready for hire
C
While I'm building a rollin' empire
   Bb    C         G
Of blood sweat and steel

[Verse 2]
        G
I don't waste time, I make time
Bb
Tearin' a strip off the white line
      C
I'm a professional man, I'm a one of a kind
      Bb        C        G
And I know how to bring it in
        G
I got a clean slate in five states
    Bb
And twenty-nine that ain't so great
    C
And fourteen that'll have to wait,
    Bb       C     G
And two I've never been

[Chorus]
G
I'm a road hammer
  Bb
A white-knuckled steel-gear jammer
  C
A rig-jockey highway slammer
         Bb           C     G
I'm just doin' what I gotta do
G
I'm a road hammer
  Bb
A double-talkin' C-B rambler
     C
I'll haul your load from Alabama
Bb             C     G
All the way to Timbuktu

[Verse 3]
            G
I've hauled left coast to west coast
Bb
California sun where they're chillin' the most
         C
I follow 309, the teddy bear's ghost
Bb             C     G
All the way to New Orleans
               G
I've been from Thunder Bay, to P-A
Bb
All the way down to F-L-A
    C
And every little town along the way
              Bb          C       G
They're ain't much that I haven't seen

[Chorus]
G
I'm a road hammer
  Bb
A white-knuckled steel-gear jammer
  C
A rig-jockey highway slammer
         Bb           C     G
I'm just doin' what I gotta do
G
I'm a road hammer
  Bb
A double-talkin' C-B rambler
     C
I'll haul your load from Alabama
Bb             C     G
All the way to Timbuktu

[Bridge]
G / Bb C /
      Another day,             another town
D /     E / / /
      Diesel up, and       hammer down!

[Instrumental]
G Bb C Bb C G G Bb C Bb C G

[Verse 4]
        G
I got a pimped ride, pretty bride,
Bb
Four little babies and my hound reside
C
Back in the hills on the mountainside
Bb           C     G
South of the river bend
         G
I got my cellphone, on roam
Bb
Sweet little thing wants to get it on
           C
She says I left something turned on at home
          Bb            C    G
She can't wait till I'm back again!

[Chorus]
G
I'm a road hammer
  Bb
A white-knuckled steel-gear jammer
  C
A rig-jockey highway slammer
         Bb           C     G
I'm just doin' what I gotta do
G
I'm a road hammer
  Bb
A double-talkin' C-B rambler
     C
I'll haul your load from Alabama
Bb             C     G
All the way to Timbuktu
