[00:12.239]Truckin'got  my  chips  cashed  in.Keep  truckin',like  the  do-dah  man
[00:19.755]Together,more  or  less  in  line,just  keep  truckin'on.
[00:35.545]Arrows  of  neon  and  flashing  marquees  out  on  Main  Street.
[00:39.556]Chicago,New  York,Detroit  and  it's  all  on  the  same  street.
[00:43.10]Your  typical  city  involved  in  a  typical  daydream
[00:47.307]Hang  it  up  and  see  what  tomorrow  brings.
[00:50.914]Dallas,got  a  soft  machine;Houston,too  close  to  New  Orleans;
[00:58.632]New  York's  got  the  ways  and  means;but  just  won't  let  you  be,oh  no.
[01:14.630]Most  of  the  cast  that  you  meet  on  the  streets  speak  of  true  love,
[01:17.524]Most  of  the  time  they're  sittin'and  cryin'at  home.
[01:21.334]One  of  these  days  they  know  they  better  get  goin'
[01:25.244]Out  of  the  door  and  down  on  the  streets  all  alone.
[01:29.01]Truckin',like  the  do-dah  man.Once  told  me ";You've  got  to  play  your  hand";
[01:36.670]Sometimes  your  cards  ain't  worth  a  dime,if  you  don't  lay'em  down,
[01:51.754]Sometimes  the  light's  all  shinin'on  me;
[01:58.658]Other  times  I  can  barely  see.
[02:05.159]Lately  it  occurs  to  me  What  a  long,strange  trip  it's  been.
[02:23.278]What  in  the  world  ever  became  of  sweet  Jane?
[02:26.732]She  lost  her  sparkle,you  know  she  isn't  the  same
[02:30.595]Livin'on  reds,vitamin  C,and  cocaine,
[02:32.929]All  a  friend  can  say  is ";Ain't  it  a  shame?";
[02:38.211]Truckin',up  to  Buffalo.Been  thinkin',you  got  to  mellow  slow
[02:45.676]Takes  time,you  pick  a  place  to  go,and  just  keep  truckin'on.
[03:00.759]Sittin'and  starin'out  of  the  hotel  window.
[03:04.517]Got  a  tip  they're  gonna  kick  the  door  in  again
[03:08.224]I'd  like  to  get  some  sleep  before  I  travel,
[03:11.931]But  if  you  got  a  warrant,I  guess  you're  gonna  come  in.
[03:15.944]Busted,down  on  Bourbon  Street,Set  up,like  a  bowlin'pin.
[03:23.357]Knocked  down,it  get's  to  wearin'thin.They  just  won't  let  you  be,oh  no.
[03:39.49]You're  sick  of  hangin'around  and  you'd  like  to  travel;
[03:41.640]Get  tired  of  travelin'and  you  want  to  settle  down.
[03:45.855]I  guess  they  can't  revoke  your  soul  for  tryin',
[03:49.612]Get  out  of  the  door  and  light  out  and  look  all  around.
[03:53.523]Sometimes  the  light's  all  shinin'on  me;
[04:00.173]Other  times  I  can  barely  see.
[04:06.371]Lately  it  occurs  to  me  What  a  long,strange  trip  it's  been.
[04:24.399]Truckin',I'm  a  goin'home.Whoa  whoa  baby,back  where  I  belong,
[04:30.371]Back  home,sit  down  and  patch  my  bones,and  get  back  truckin'on.
[04:56.270]Hey  now  get  back  truckin'home.
