Verse 1
D 
Truckin' is all I've ever known,
but it's not all that bad.
G 
D 
Yeah, I'm a hard -workin' trucker,
A 
D 
known as Truckin' Dad.
Yeah, you betcha I'm a trucker.
Best job I ever had.
G 
D 
Closed the wife, beat the kids.
E 
A 
They call me Truckin' Dad.
D 
Now we live in this here neighborhood,
where there's a banker next to us.
G 
And there's a  couple other piggies
D 
E 
A 
who wish my old rig would rust.
D 
You see, I park it right out in the front.
Makes my kids real glad.
G 
They always bring their
D 
friends around.
E 
A 
They're proud of Truckin' Dad.
D 
Well now, just the other day,
I heard this rumor going round.
G 
D 
That big ol' iron monster of mine
E 
kept the housing value down
A 
D 
Now truckin's all I've ever known,
but it's not all that bad
G 
D 
Yeah, I'm a hard -workin' trucker,
A 
D 
known as Truckin' Dad
Well, now they asked me if I'd move it,
said it made the street look real bad
G 
Now I thought that over,
D 
E 
A 
and I kinda angered ol' Truckin' Dad
D 
So I  checked the bankers' income
and those two biggies' salaries
G 
D 
Now they all had those bigger houses,
E 
A 
but they made less than me
D 
So now they all plan on selling,
but here's what really
made them mad
G 
D 
They're in the hole up to their axles,
E 
A 
but not old truckin' Dad
D 
So I  invited all my truckin' friends
to my place for a beer
G 
I told them that whole neighborhood
D 
could be bought
E 
from what I hear
A 
D 
Well, they all started checkin' round
I'm the best friend they have
G 
D 
Cause we all parked them rigs out front
G 
D 
E 
A 
A  block full of truckin' dads
D 
Truckin's all I've ever done
But it's not all that bad
G 
D 
Yeah, I'm a hard -workin' trucker
A 
D 
Known as Truckin' Dad
Ah, truckin's all I've ever known
But it's not all that bad, yeah
G 
D 
I'm a hard workin' trucker,
A 
D 
known as Truckin' Dad.
Yeah, truckin's all I've ever known.
D 
But it's not all that bad, yeah
I'm a hard workin' trucker,
known as Truckin' Dad.
