Lyrics
Junior Brown feat. Red Simpson - Semi-Crazy
They say I gotta be half crazy to be doin' what I do
I'm a slap happy, gear jamming, coffee drinkin', truck drivin' fool
I may have a little shimmy in this cracker box Jimmie
But I ain't never cracked up yet
The more I try to make a buck in this beat up truck
The more Semi-Crazy I get
Yeah I'm Semi-Crazy
I gotta be half nuts
To keep runnin' up and down the road in these semi trucks
I might a had half a mind to slow it down for a time
But I'm never gonna give it up
'Till I'm pushin' up daisies
I'll be Semi-Crazy
I'm just a truck drivin' fool who never finished school
I got my learnin' at the old truck stop
They said I won't amount to much
when a gear shift and a clutch was the only education I got
I'm just an old blue collar, Semi-Crazy Road Scholar
They tell me that I'm half insane
And I've been drivin' so long I got diesel in my blood
And ninety weight oil on my brain
Cause I'm Semi-Crazy
Yeah 'bout half nuts
To keep runnin' up and down the road in these semi trucks
I might a had half a mind to slow it down for a time
But I'm never gonna give it up
'Till I'm pushin' up daisies
I'll be Semi-Crazy
Everybody says were dingy cause were too Semi-Crazy to stop
That's the handle that were stuck with
No matter if we like it or not
Through the desert and the mountains
the sunshine, the rain, and the snow
We'll be double clutchin' daddies 'till we're over the hill
And we're never gonna take it slow
Cause I'm Semi-Crazy
We got big half nuts
To keep runnin' up and down the road in these semi trucks
You might a had half a mind to slow it down for a time
But you're never gonna give it up
'Till We're pushin' up daisies
We'll be Semi-Crazy
'Till they put us in the ground
They'll never shut us down
Till we're six feet under
We'll be rollin' thunder
Junior: Oh yeah. Hey breaker one-nine
Red, you out there?
You got Linear Junior out here, come on back
Red: Hey Linear. This is old Cornbread Red
How ya doin' boy?
Junior: Well, I'm a little Semi-Crazy from drivin' this truck too long, but I'll be alright
Red: Ha Ha Ha. Me too.
What do ya think of that, Dudley?
They say I gotta be half crazy to be doin' what I do
I'm a slap happy, gear jamming, coffee drinkin', truck drivin' fool
I may have a little shimmy in this cracker box Jimmie
But I ain't never cracked up yet
The more I try to make a buck in this beat up truck
The more Semi-Crazy I get
Yeah I'm Semi-Crazy
I gotta be half nuts
To keep runnin' up and down the road in these semi trucks
I might a had half a mind to slow it down for a time
But I'm never gonna give it up
'Till I'm pushin' up daisies
I'll be Semi-Crazy
I'm just a truck drivin' fool who never finished school
