When You're Sitting at the Bar

It's as black as the devil's heart
Out here on this interstate
The crackling of the radio
Can barely keep me awake

This truck is a silver spaceship
Hurling silently through space
I'm a lonesome rocket jockey
Feeling like a castaway

Chorus
Baby do you love me
When you're sitting at the bar
Waiting for some company
Enjoying happy hour
A trucker's life is lonesome
A trucker's wife gets lonesome too
I've got a trailer full of troubles
And a mind full of you
Baby do you love me
When you're sitting at the bar

You still tell me that you miss me
But you never say how much
I know you care some for me
I just don't know if that's enough

I can picture you sitting there
An angel out on her own
Free drinks for the lady here
Every time her husband's gone

Chorus
Baby do you love me
When you're sitting at the bar
Waiting for some company
Enjoying happy hour
A trucker's life is lonesome
A trucker's wife gets lonesome too
I've got a trailer full of troubles
And a mind full of you
Baby do you love me
When you're sitting at the bar

Bridge
You like to be the life of the party
You want to be everybody's friend
I'm stuck out here on this dark highway
And you're sitting at that bar again

Chorus
Baby do you love me
When you're sitting at the bar
Waiting for some company
Enjoying happy hour
A trucker's life is lonesome
A trucker's wife gets lonesome too
I've got a trailer full of troubles
And a mind full of you
Baby do you love me
When you're sitting at the bar
