Looking At The World Through A Windshield Lyrics - Del Reeves

When I was just a little bitty kid 

I remember one thing mama said 

"Daddy sends you all of his love from 'Frisco Bay" 

And I didn't understand till I was grown 

Why my daddy didn't spend a little time at home 

Instead of running 'round the country that way 

Now, I'm looking at the world through a windshield 

Watching it fly by me on the right 

Well, there's a cute little honey I'm dying to see down in Nashville 

But I'm down around Dallas and I'm rollin' down south tonight 

Long strips of rubber that you see 

Burnt off of this rig by the likes of me 

They'll have to rot here on the highways of this land 

I'm gonna write my name in this diesel smoke 

Let the ones that come along behind me choke 

I gotta beat this pace, I'm setting anytime I can 

Now I'm looking at the world through a windshield 

Watching it fly by me on the right 

There's a cute little honey I'm dying to see down in Nashville 

But I'm down around Dallas and I'm rollin' down south tonight 

Well, I pulled this rig through sleet and rain 

And I've driven through that rough terrain 

Of the Rockies to the docks of old L.A 

I gotta head up that old Pacific shore 

And head on out for Baltimore 

Or some place 'bout 2000 miles away 

Now, I'm looking at the world through a windshield 

And I see everything in a little bit of different light 

Well, there's a cute little honey I'm dying to see, down in Nashville 

But I'm down around Dallas and I'm rollin' down south tonight 

Yes, I'm down around Dallas and I'm rollin' down south tonight
