"THE HEARTBEAT"

The "Heartbeat Of America" is not some pick-up truck.
You Drivers are the "Heartbeat Of America" and always will be.
Our country function's just like the human body.
The Interstates are the main arteries, and the highways are the many different veins and avenues.
Trucks continue to move our needs which is, the blood flowing, and in return, this keeps the beat going.
"Hear The Beat"!

It's all from "GOD" and only He
Made rivers drain into the sea
He made the earth, the air we breath
And all the things he knew we need.
As his creation moved along
Population got so strong
Many loads, time was draggin
He retired that covered wagon.
Thats when "The Big Trucks" came abroad
The time had come to build his "Squad".
Ah, special group in his right hand
To help maintain the Promise Land
He needed Trucks, that could run
And this is where it all begun.
"Ride The Ride" "Hear The Beat"! "GOD" found a way, to move the wheat.
He showed man how to build ah' Pete.
To move our goods across the land.
He needed more than just ah' van.
More trailers came he would select.
He designed a float, and that drop-deck.
That ol' cow trailer which now they stack.
Thats "God's" pride that "Ol" Bullrack".
He knew that he had made a keeper,
First time man designed a reefer.
This trailer had a lot of use.
Ah' "Chicken Truck" that moved produce.
From eggs, to meat, to candy bars
Trailers that would haul the cars
"Logs, Rocks, ah' Hopper Bottom"
"Tanker Yankers" "GOD" has got'em.
Trucks move material to make the steel
And everything in your next meal
From Beans, to rice, to sugarcane
It all ends up in that left lane.
The lumber it took to build your house
Your cloths, to your computer mouse
Everything thats in your yard
The gas you just put in your car.
When that "Big Rig" is on the street
He might be haulin' what you eat
He brought the goods for that New Born
That later tells him, "Blow Your Horn"
On the road, if you break down
You watch that "Big Rig" turn around
He'll help you out, and once again
Ah' Drivers day dont ever end.
All you need dont come by luck
"Next time "SMILE" at that Big Truck"
"Slap That Knee","Stomp Them Feet".
"Ride The Ride" "Hear The Beat"!
Tornado, Flood, ah' Hurricane
Container Ship, or on ah' Train
In heat, the rain, in sleet or snow
A Driver and his Truck Must Go
For all the loads that do arrive
Some Driver had to make that Drive
He kissed his family left his home
He visits them by telephone
They always try, to do their best
But never do get proper rest
Ya' have no clue what they do
And they do it all, for me and you.
Problems they face everyday
Like when the cars are in their way
The shipper says, this load cant wait
Before he leaves, the load is late
He's off again, & "What A Deal"
Another load on his fifth wheel.
He climbs onto the interstate
Starts to think, about the rate
Ah' thousand miles, he's on his way
He takes time out and starts to pray.
"I Thank you lord for another day "
Protect the family while I'm away
Please keep me safe out on the road
Come ride with me another load.
One sure way, for you to score.
"Just "Keep The Faith", and "Praise The Lord".
He heads on where he needs to be
He watches for the DOT
He knows that they can throw their hook
It all begins, with that log book.
Theres not a lot, that he can do
Like when that fuel card wont go through
The heat goes out, he's in the cold
When he calls in, he's put on hold.
He needs to eat, take a shower
He must unload, within the hour
Another load, off he goes
He needs to stop to wash his cloths
The nights are long, and all alone
He takes time out to call his home.

"Little Ray's Special Effect"

( 3 Years Old ) He tells them everywhere he's beenHis family really misses him

Drivers I can tell you this
I know your family's dearly missed
And all those miles away from home
You have a guide, your not alone
You do a job, you love to do
Always there, and God's with you
And all the places you have been
"GOD" thanks you as you do for him.
You Drivers keep his world alive
Without you, it wont survive
Walk the dog, kick the cat
Look straight up, tip your hat.
Stay alive, "Pray To GOD"
Live Your Part, "The GOD Squad"
"Slap That Knee","Stomp Them Feet".
"Ride The Ride", "Hear The Beat"
"One sure way for you to score,
"Just "Keep The Faith" and "Praise The Lord".
"Keep The Faith" and "Praise The Lord". When the Trucks stop movin', The Heart stops beating!
