Borderline

Daylight's rising across the plains

This rig is streaking like a hellbound train

I smuggle whiskey, i smuggle gin

Where there's a need well i just truck on in



I'm a gambling man, son of a gun

I'll take the risks now baby i'll make the run

Wanna get home now, back in the saddle

Ain't gonna drive this kinda grade a cattle



Daylight's rising across the plains

This rig is streaking like a hellbound train

Albuquerque now, new mexico

This .???.. one night show, yeah





* (and i'm) one step closer to the devil

One step further from the law

Lord i guess i'm just on borrowed time

But i'm one step closer to the

One step closer to the borderline



18 hours on this one long shift

Wanna hear the sweet sound of my tailgate lift

Lord i'm dying out on this road

Wanna see my baby, help me unload



* repeat



[instrumental]



Rolling stock now, shifting steel

Got a woman with a touch to heal

Diesel, dust and my wheels are humming

So close to home, can you feel me coming



* repeat

To the borderline...

To the borderline



[instrumental]



* repeat

To the borderline...

To the borderline...



Wheels are rollin' down on home
