Piggyback Blues - Red Simpson

I got the piggyback blues what’s a feller could do

When the cab of a truck’s been his home

I got the piggyback I gotta change my ways

Cause the long old hauls are gone

Well the boss called us in about a month ago

Said fellows the long hauls are through

Take your trailer to the railroad yard

There’s a flat car waitin' for you

There’s a flat car a waitin' for you

I’d like to see Mary in Abilene and Susie in Omaha

I’d like to see Jeannie in Albequerk' and Betty in Wichita

And Betty in Wichita

I got the piggyback blues…

Well these piggyback cars are gonna change my life

I’ll have to start to slippin' around

I’ll have to get the kitch that I miss so much

In the places on the outskirts of town

Yeah the places on the outskirts of town

I got the piggyback blues…
