Intro

Verse

Some call it the ribbon

Some say the white line

I say truckstop living

Well, it suits me fine

Bridge

Everyday of the week

Everyday of the week

We heard some other fellars talking

I think it's going to be a good fight

Tonight the radio is rocking

I'm going to hear my favorite song

Chorus

If it takes all night

If it takes all night

If it takes all night

If it takes all night

If it takes all night

Verse 2

I'm going to wash my favorite shirt

In downtown Marseilles

It's got the same old dirt

From up in Galais

Bridge

How many days and weeks?

How many days and weeks?

Now every job it is important

But still sometimes the money's right

I saw the ghost of Johnny Horton

He said we're going to make el Paso

Chorus

- 2 TIMES

If it takes all night

If it takes all night

If it takes all night

If it takes all night

Verse 3

I lost my favorite cook

He left little Siam

For many years I looked

He said here I am haw haw

Bridge

Everyday of the week

Everyday of the week

Some got to go and see their mama

Some got to play a show tonight

I got to go and see my baby

When next I sleep I'll be with her

If it takes all night

If it takes all night

If it takes all night

If it takes all night
