He started out an innocent lad
Singin' those songs and they wasn't bad
This trucker from Tennessee
He's got a load of something, must be T.N.T.
This fascinating trucker from Tennessee
Women went wild all over the land
He's got their hearts right in his hand
This trucker from Tennessee
He's got a load of something, must be T.N.T.
This fascinating trucker from Tennessee

Swings a guitar, but he doesn't play
Carries it inside, the girls await
This trucker from Tennessee
He's rockin', he's rollin', he's lively as a bee
This fascinating trucker from Tennessee

He's got rhythm and he's got a style
Rocks and rolls and man, they're wild
This trucker from Tennessee
He's got a load of something, must be T.N.T.
This fascinating trucker from Tennessee
Cadillacs roll right up to his door
And when he gets rollin' the hepcats roar
This trucker from Tennessee
He's got a load of something, that stole my girl from me
This fascinating trucker from Tennessee
