Who is the girl wearing nothing but a smile and a towel,
In the picture on the billboard in the field near the big old highway? (Big old highway.)
Rolling down the highway in my Jimmy, hauling freight,
From Chicago to St. Louis, Lord, I see her every day. (See her every day.)
Double clutching weasel like me can hardly ever get,
A girl to look at him that a-way. (That a-way.)
Smiling like a girl wearing nothing but a smile and a towel,
In the picture on the billboard in the field near the big old highway. (Big old highway.)
Doggone, that girl wearing nothing but a smile and a towel,
In the picture on the billboard in the field near the big old highway. (Big old highway.)
Sleepy headed, said the girl wasn't real,
Better get the hell on my way. (My way.)
On Route 66 from the billboard to Chicago,
You'll find tiny pieces of my heart scattered every which way. (Every which way.)
Shattered by the girl wearing nothing but a smile and a towel,
In the picture on the billboard in the field near the big old highway. (Big old highway.)
Ah, honey, I don't know who painted you.
But he must have had a broken heart.
You break my heart every day.
You break every other trucker's heart,
That travels this lonely road.
-The girl on the billboard
Boxcar Willie
woken up to a comforting rut.
good morning.
