Daddy's Been Running Hard
By: Lonnie Flemmer
GREB/SESAC

6,000 miles in 7 days
Bloodshot eyes, and an aching head
Daddy, daddy, shut her down
Hate for you to wind up dead

Daddy's been running hard
Daddy's been running hard
Gonna buy us a house with a big backyard
Daddy's been running, daddy's been running (Chorus)
Daddy's been running hard

Daddy drives a semi-truck
Makes a living on the road
Banging gears for a better life
Oh how we miss him so

Chorus

He said after that next load there won't be anymore
Got a for-sale sign on the driver side door

Chorus

Lead

Chorus

Air-horn blast woke momma last night
Face was one big grin
Daddy made it home alright
Hope he never leaves again

Chorus

Daddy's been running hard
Daddy's been running hard
