Verse 1
C 
Those hard drivin' truckers
Gear jammin' day and night
G 
Have got a real tough job to stand up to
By ballin' down the highway
In a big long diesel rig
C 
It's not a job just anyone can do

Verse 2

But there's a lot of credit due

To a fine group of girls

They're the truckers wives

who wait for their men

When they kiss them goodbye

And watch the tail lights fade

It's a lonely wait until they're home again

Verse 3
C 
F 
He may be gone three days
Or maybe two weeks
D 
G 
And everything is left in her care
Like payin' bills and cuttin' grass
And fixin' kids their meals
She's the woman behind
C 
the man behind the wheel

Instrumental

Verse 4
C 
This special breed of woman
Has to share a love affair
With that long stretch
G 
of highway on his mind
But she knows that he loves her
More than anything
She's a truckers wife
and that's the greatest kind
C 

Verse 5
And as he sips his coffee
You can bet she's on his mind
When he's drivin' down
G 
that highway all alone
And that sleeper sure gets lonely
Parked at a big truck stop
C 
Compared to being in her arms at home
F 
Now

Verse 6
we've sung songs and praises
About the truckin' men
C 
D 
And they're true let's
G 
save one little spiel
C 
G 
For all the truckers wives
Because after all
She's the woman behind
C 
the man behind the wheel
G 
She's the woman behind
the man behind the wheel
C
