Hook)
Eighteen wheels hummin’, headlights cuttin’ white,
Chicken truck rollin’ through the middle of the night,
CDT outta Lake City, Florida pride,
Feathers in the trailer, diesel in my veins, I ride.
(Verse 1)
Midnight on the dash, tach sittin’ low,
Got a reefer hummin’ like a country radio,
Roosters in the box, yeah they headed upstate,
Time-sensitive load, can’t be late at the gate.
Coffee in the cup, boots on the floor,
Every mile marker feelin’ like I done this before,
CB talk quiet, moon hangin’ high,
Only thing awake is the chickens and I.
(Pre-Chorus)
White lines singin’ me a lullaby,
But sleep gotta wait till the sun hit the sky.
(Hook)
Eighteen wheels hummin’, headlights cuttin’ white,
Chicken truck rollin’ through the middle of the night,
CDT outta Lake City, Florida pride,
Feathers in the trailer, diesel in my veins, I ride.
(Verse 2)
I-10 eastbound, then I slide up north,
Flat land pines whisper stories of the road I chose,
Reefer set right, gotta keep it tight,
Livin’ cargo breathin’, gotta treat ‘em right.
From farm to fryer, yeah the grind don’t quit,
Paychecks made on miles and a little bit of grit,
While the world sleepin’ dreamin’ big dreams,
I’m haulin’ tomorrow in a long white stream.
(Rap Break)
CDT on the door, Lake City stamped,
Gravel on the steps, workin’ man’s champ,
Ain’t glam, ain’t fake, just truth on tires,
Late nights, long roads, built by fire.
(Hook)
Eighteen wheels hummin’, headlights cuttin’ white,
Chicken truck rollin’ through the middle of the night,
CDT outta Lake City, Florida pride,
Feathers in the trailer, diesel in my veins, I ride.
(Bridge)
Sun comin’ up as I back to the dock,
Another load moved ‘fore the rooster clock,
Engine coolin’ down, but the hustle stay hot,
Fed a whole country from a lonely blacktop.
(Outro)
Yeah, chicken thru the night, keep the world fed right,
CDT Lake City, we don’t stop—
We drive. 🐔🚛🔥
