Bilingual
Standin' by the door, kissin' my wife goodbye
Headed out on a east Texas run
She looked at me and smiled
Said, "I know you gotta leave
But honey, when are you comin' back home"
ย
I said, "This is all I know
I'm gonna try and hurry home
Oh, but I got this white line fever burnin' in my bones
Diesel smoke in my blood"
ย
Then I thought back to when I was young
Standin' at the door with my old man
I said, "Dad, I know you gotta leave
But when you comin' back home?"
He said, "Just as soon as I can"
ย
Well, I didn't know
Until I was grown
That he had that same damn white line fever
Burnin' in his bones
Passed it on to his only son
ย
I don't know what makes a man keep truckin' on
All I know is that I feel so at home on this road
All alone
ย
This is all I know
I'm gonna try and hurry home
Oh, but I got this white line fever burnin' in my bones
Diesel smoke in my blood
Diesel smoke in my blood
Diesel smoke in my blood
