    Bonnie Jean (Little Sister)
    by David Lynn Jones
    Album: Hard Times on Easy Street (1980)

    Peterbilt a truck for a man to drive
    It’s a pretty good livin’ but it ain’t no life
    For a farmer’s daughter or a drunk man’s wife
    Peterbilt a truck for a man to drive
    Peterbilt a truck for a man to drive

    Well, little sister was justa’ seventeen
    When she left the farm, a virgin dream
    Moved up to Kansas City with her school girl dream
    But nothin’ ever came easy to Bonnie Jean
    Nothin’ ever came easy to Bonnie Jean

    Now she fell in love with a truck drivin’ man
    And they got married on a hard luck plan
    Little babies are something every good woman needs
    So he left her with three hungry mouths to feed
    He left her with three hungry mouths to feed

    Now little sister rolls them eighteen wheels
    She knows how that lonesome highway feels
    She’s got a heart of gold and nerves of steel
    Little sister rolls them eighteen wheels
    Little sister rolls them eighteen wheels

    Here she comes, now!

    She’s runnin’ out of road from coast to coast
    It’s the little things that she misses the most
    She’s a mother all day and a trucker all night
    Livin’ on coffee and mini wipes
    Livin’ on coffee and mini wipes

    Now the eggs don’t fry and the bacon don’t burn
    There’s a little curve around every turn
    She’s in love with a Kenny, and a Jimmy and a Mac
    She’s lost on a highway and she ain’t comin’ back
    Lost on a highway and she ain’t comin’ back

    ‘Cause little sister rolls them eighteen wheels
    She knows how that lonesome highway feels
    She’s got a heart of gold and nerves of steel
    Little sister rolls them eighteen wheels
    Little sister rolls them eighteen wheels

    Yeah, I said, little sister rolls them eighteen wheels
    She knows how that lonesome highway feels
    She’s got a heart of gold and nerves of steel
    Little sister rolls them eighteen wheels
    Little sister rolls them eighteen wheels

    Peterbilt a truck for a man to drive
    It’s a pretty good livin’ but it ain’t no life
    For a farmer’s daughter or a drunk man’s wife
    Peterbilt a truck for a man to drive
    Peterbilt a truck for a man to drive
    Peterbilt a truck for a man to drive
    Peterbilt a truck for a man to drive!
