Story behind the song
This is a song about the perfect truckstop; sort of "Big Rock Candy Mountain" for truck drivers.
Lyrics
Tourists eat where trucker's eat, 'Cause everybody knows, That since we're always on the road, We know just where to go. But, there's a place that's secret, That only truckers know; A place I found by accident, Twenty years ago. Chorus: It's off state highway 63; The best I've ever known. Just turn to the right the food's allright. Turn left you're on your own. The eggs are laid fresh every day; Scrambled, poached or fried. The pancakes are all golden brown, And stacked a mile high. They're never out of syrup, Catsup, salt or mayonnaise. The Coffee will keep you awake, For fourty-seven days. (Chorus) Coffee is a quarter. Breakfast is a buck. The jukebox costs a nickel. They'll pipe it to your truck. Two dollars buys a three pound steak. They'll cook it to your taste. If three's a truckers' heaven, This, surely, is the place. (Chorus)
