about

Allegedly, Sam Phillips - frustrated by Johnny Cash's lack of inspiring songs – said to him: "What song will you choose when that big truck comes and runs you down and you're lying in the dirt ...?" Some good ol' country pickin' from Dave Woodhouse on Gretsch guitar, and Darren Buddell on pedal steel. A little bit of Johnny & June with wonderful harmonies from Isabella Tulloch ......

lyrics

When that big truck comes & runs me down and I’m lying in the dirt
And all the rest is history
Don’t stand around and tell me that I got what I deserve,
That’s between that eighteen-wheeler and me

Yes, it’s just between that big truck and me
It’s just between that big truck and me
I want my own sweet piece of heaven
To be the last thing that I see
When it’s just between that big truck and me

Met a girl in Montana, she had eyes for me
She calmed the troubled waters of my soul
That she got mad when I left town, was no surprise to me
I just had to let these wheels roll

When that big Air Horn blows
Telling me I’ve run out of road
I wanna keep drivin’ ‘til I hit the next horizon
Just to see where this old road goes

Bad lands highway, straight as any die
Cutting right across this grey and arid land
No turn or retraction, it just looks you in the eye …
Showed me how to be a better man
