[Verse 1]
He wore the road like a second skin
Diesel dreams and the hum within
Hands calloused strong
Fixing what broke
A man of grease
Grit
And tire smoke
[Chorus]
He’d give the shirt right off his back
To a stranger lost on life's rough track
A family man with a hunter’s aim
Now the highway whispers his name
[Verse 2]
Sunrise on chrome
Coffee in hand
His heart beat steady like the rig he ran
He built a life with love and care
Now his shadow's everywhere
[Prechorus]
He’s in the wind
He’s in the rain
In every wrench
In every chain
[Chorus]
He’d give the shirt right off his back
To a stranger lost on life's rough track
A family man with a hunter’s aim
Now the highway whispers his name
[Bridge]
The woods still hold his quiet laugh
The truck stop tales
The photograph
He taught me roads don’t end
They bend
Love's a journey
Not a trend
