Well, Here's to the guys in the warehouse,
for quickly receiving my load.
They don't make me wait, to unload my freight,
so I can get back on the road.

And, Here's to the crew at the scale house,
for watching, and waving me through.
We talk bad about 'em, but can't do without 'em.
They've got a job to do too.

And, Here's to the waitress, back there at the truck stop,
who smiles and calls everyone "Hun".
Her name tag say "Thelma" or "Noreen" or "Velma".
She's worked there since '71.

Yeah, Here's to the people I've met on the road,
and all the great people I've known.
But most of all, here's to the ones that I love,
Here's to the folks back at home.
