King of Chrome Songtext
von The Veils

He′s tearing a line down that open road
He's got a hotch kiss shaft and a nine tonne load
No thing in heaven or hell can match this king of chrome

He clenches his snow-white knuckles around the steering wheel
It′s been eighteen years since his last home-cooked
He used to swim around naked with the fish and the foam

He got white noise blaring from his cabin door
He ain't seen his own mother since 1984
He likes his meat served red, straight off the bone

He's out there searching for that missing part
He got an eye for trouble and a broken heart
He don′t know where he′s going but he ain't never going home

Truck driver, oh, truck driver
Last of the midnight riders
What do you dream in the night all alone?
Truck driver, oh, truck driver
First of your kind, now the sole survivor
Tell me, where are you headed in the night all alone?


Endless highways all headed up
He drinks elixir from a plastic cup
Yeah, sing it out loud, baby, sing it low

Truck driver, oh, truck driver
First of your kind, now the sole survivor
Tell me, what you dream in the night all alone
In the night all alone

In the night all alone
In the night all alone
(In the night all alone)

Baby, you′re cold when you're walking around
I can see them walking, babe
Oh, and you′re bawling your eyes
Suck it up, dear, oh suffer now
Honey, I want ya', I want ya′ so bad

Endless highways all leading up
He drinks elixir from a plastic cup
Sing it out loud, baby, sing it low...

Truck driver, oh, truck driver
First of your kind, now the sole survivor
Where are you headed in the night all alone?
In the night all alone


In the night all alone
In the night all alone
In the night all alone
In the night all alone
In the night all alone
