I got something kinda special I'd like to say to all you truck drivers out there who might be listening right now

Also a truck drivers prayer I'd like to pass along to you

Cuz I think it's kind of special too

But first, Now I gotta few things I've been wanting to say to you guys for a long time

And I think right now is a good time to do it

Like did you know that me and just about everyone in country music who travel a lot

Have nothing but the highest respect for you the truck driver

Cuz its a fact that some of the best drivers are truck drivers

And the most safety minded, the most courteous and the first to stop and help when there's trouble

And little things like blinking signals lights to help someone pass

So you just gotta be good people

Like some I've had the pleasure of meeting

Down to earth, hard-working family men

And a lot of you like our country music and that makes you okay in my book

Sounds like I'm blowing smoke, don't it

But I'm not

Cuz it boils down to this

If everyone would drive liek you guys do

There would be a lot less accidents and deaths on the highway

So truck driver, buddy, you are appreciated more then you'll ever know

And we salute you, now for the prayer

Now this truck drivers prayer was sent to me, by a truck driver from Oklahoma City

He found it in a truck stop, Mary's Cafe in Cahokia, Il

Now this prayer means a lot to him

And I think it will you too, so if you will give a listen

And see if it isn't your prayer too

Dear God above bless this truck I drive

And help me keep someone alive

Be my mortal sight this day

On the street where little children play

Bless my helper fast asleep

When the night is long and deep

And keep my cargo safe and sound

Through the hours big and round

Make my judgment sound as steel

And be my hands upon the wheel

Bless the traveler going past

And teach them not to go so fast

Give me strength for every trip

So I may care for what they ship

And make me mindful every mile

That life is just a little while... Amen
