Those hard-driving truckers gear-jamming day and night
Have got a real tough job to stand up to.
Highballing down a highway in a big long diesel rig
Is not a job just anyone can do.

But there's a lot of credit due to a fine group of girls,
They're the truckers' wives who wait for their men.
When they kiss them goodbye and watch the taillights fade
It's a lonely wait until they're home again.

He may be gone three days or maybe two weeks,
And everything is left in her care,
Like paying bills and cutting grass and fixing kids their meals.
She's the woman behind the man behind the wheel.

This special breed of woman has to share a love affair
With that long stretch of highway on his mind,
But she knows that he loves her more than anything.
She's a trucker's wife and that's the greatest kind.

And as he sips his coffee you can bet she's on his mind,
Or when he's driving down that highway all alone.
And that sleeper sure gets lonely parked at a big truck stop
Compared to being in her arms at home.

Now, we've sung songs and praises about the trucking man
And they're true, but lets save one little spiel
For all the truckers' wives, because after all
She's the woman behind the man behind the wheel.
She's the woman behind the man behind the wheel.
