There Ain't No Diesel Trucks in Heaven

A trucker's life is full of strife

It's not hard in a way

He's got no time for church on sunday, or time for a wife

Oh, he's always got to run to make

It's got to be on time

Well, his soul's as black as coffee

And that's the reason why

There ain't no diesel trucks In Heaven 'bove, they've all drove to hell

A diesel smoke and Heaven's clouds, they don't mix very well

All the Angels up in Heaven, they have wings to fly about

But the demons down in Hell, drive diesel trucks around

A truckers know the darkest streets

They don't fit them on their own roads

And way stations with the barely gates, won't take their heavy loads

Well, I once knew a trucker, oh, he prayed to God above

When he died, his prayers, rejected

And the Devil took his truck

There ain't no diesel trucks In Heaven 'bove, they've all drove to hell

A diesel smoke and Heaven's clouds, don't mix very well

All the Angels up in Heaven, well, they have wings to fly about

But the demons down in Hell, drive diesel trucks around

I got nothing against Heaven

But it's hard to deny the power of the Devil's convoy, and all it's diesel strain

But if I get to Heaven, and my truck gets left behind

Well, l'lI sing this song to Jesus, and try to change his mind

Will sing, there ain't no diesel trucks In Heaven 'bove, they've all drove to hell

A diesel smoke and all this clouds, don't mix very well

All these Angels here in Heaven, they have wings to fly about

While the demons down in Hell, all drive diesel trucks around
