G+G C majorC D MajorD G+G

G+G
Sittin here wishin and thinkin and prayin
C majorC
Wonderin what them folks are sayin
   G+G          D MajorD
?Bout me and what I?m doin here
       G+G
Yeah they?re lookin like I?m gonna steal their stuff
   C majorC
Well Brother I tell you I got enough
    G+G        D MajorD         G+G
Just a bag o?clothes a tent and a case of beer

G+G
Well this one ol' boy looks like a roadie from Skynrd
C majorC
Suckin down his chickin dinner
      G+G               D MajorD
He?s got a rebel flag right there on his grill
      G+G
And there?s another one I swear looks just like Hank
C majorC
Stopped in here to gas his tank
   G+G         D MajorD      G+G
Buy a pack of smokes and pop a couple pills

Chorus
     C majorC         G+G
Who needs TV when you got a truck stop
     D MajorD             G+G
Who needs movies when you?ve got the road
     C majorC            G+G
Who needs MasterCard hell you got visa
         D MajorD         G+G
And who needs to fix it if it ain?t broke

C majorC D MajorD G+G

G+G
Yeah northbound cattle wagon with neon lights
C majorC
Driven by a man you couldn?t pay me to fight
    G+G               D MajorD
I swear Ive never seen a zombie until now
    G+G
Lord he looks like he?s been up for days
C majorC
Swervin through the asphalt haze
  G+G        D MajorD         G+G
And right now id be nervous if I was a cow

G+G
And this one ol' woman with a wagon full o kids
C majorC
She looked like she just hit the skids
  G+G                   D MajorD
She left his ass this time she ain?t goin back
     G+G
Yeah she gonna drop the children off at mama?s
C majorC
She already got ?em in their pajamas
   G+G      D MajorD        G+G
And a sugar daddy waitin in a Cadillac

Chorus
     C majorC         G+G
Who needs TV when you got a truck stop
     D MajorD             G+G
Who needs movies when you?ve got the road
     C majorC            G+G
Who needs MasterCard hell you got visa
         D MajorD         G+G
And who needs to fix it if it ain?t broke

C majorC D MajorD G+G

G+G
This one ol' boy stopped to use the phone
C majorC
To tell his woman he?d soon be home
    G+G                      D MajorD
If the highway patrol would let him put the hammer down
    G+G
And he asked if his huntin dogs were alright
C majorC
And he just might make it home tonight
  G+G      D MajorD          G+G
The CB says its clear for four more towns

G+G
Well I been sittin here four or five hours
C majorC
I blew a rod doin sixty miles an hour
      G+G                 D MajorD
Seems like Detroit ain?t makin ?em like they did
  G+G
I?m glad there?s all this shit to see
C majorC
Cuz if it weren?t for them it?d just be me
   G+G        D MajorD          G+G
And I do believe I'da gone and flipped my lid

Chorus
     C majorC         G+G
Who needs TV when you got a truck stop
     D MajorD             G+G
Who needs movies when you?ve got the road
     C majorC            G+G
Who needs MasterCard hell you got visa
         D MajorD         G+G
And who needs to fix it if it ain?t broke
         D MajorD         G+G
And who needs to fix it if it ain?t broke
