Lyrics:

I got the piggyback blues, what's a fella could do?
When the cab of a truck's been his home
I got the piggyback blues, I gotta change my ways
Cause the long old hauls are gone

Well, the boss called us in about a month ago
Said fellows the long hauls are through
Take your trailer to the railroad yard
There's a flat car waitin' for you
There's a flat car waitin' for you

I'd like to see Mary in Abilene and Susie in Omaha
I'd like to see Jeannie in Albuquerque and Betty in Wichita
And Betty in Wichita

I got the piggyback blues, what's a fella could do?
When the cab of a truck's been his hom?
I got the piggyback blues, I gotta change my ways
Caus? the long old hauls are gone

Well, these piggyback cars are gonna change my life
I'll have to start to slippin' around
I'll have to get the kitch that I miss so much
In the places on the outskirts of town
Yeah, the places on the outskirts of town

I got the piggyback blues, what's a fella could do?
When the cab of a truck's been his home
I got the piggyback blues, I gotta change my ways
Cause the long old hauls are gone
