Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Long nose Kenworth Chrome teeth grinnin in the rain Doghouse sleeper full of secrets Logbook bleeds in the driver’s name Rolling coal past the county line CB ghosts in the static hum Oilfield money on a crumpled map Black gold Red dirt on my thumb [Chorus] I’m runnin a hole in the wind Pinning their ears back again (oh yeah) Kenworth howlin like a wild stray sin All night Outlaw grinnin If the scales light up I don’t slow Hammer down where the pumpjacks glow Deep dark country in my skin I’m runnin a hole in the wind [Verse 2] Midnight rig yard Iron bones groan in the mud Roughneck boys with busted knuckles Countin on this diesel blood We’re pullin hot We’re pullin heavy Paperwork don’t match the load State line whisper in the mirror Blue lights hungry for my soul [Chorus] I’m runnin a hole in the wind Pinning their ears back again (hey!) Kenworth howlin like a wild stray sin All night Outlaw grinnin If the scales light up I don’t slow Hammer down where the pumpjacks glow Deep dark country in my skin I’m runnin a hole in the wind [Bridge] Mama said that road gets cold Daddy said that road pays gold Preacher said that road ain’t blessed But this old road fits me best (fits me best) [Chorus] I’m runnin a hole in the wind Pinning their ears back again Kenworth howlin like a wild stray sin All night Outlaw grinnin If the scales light up I don’t slow Hammer down where the pumpjacks glow Oil rigs drillin I just grin I’m runnin a hole in the wind

Verses ride a dusty, half-time swagger; chorus snaps wider with big gang harmonies and highway reverb. Steel guitar slides thread through the hook, with a brief, snarling guitar break before the final chorus to lift the energy., country, deep
