Diesel in My Blood was originally intended to be a country/bluegrass truck driver tribute song I wrote back when I first started driving truck back in 1996. I was heavily inspired by the likes of Joe Diffie and Roy Clark around that time. I had visions of fiddles, banjos, up right bass and washboards when I wrote the lyrics back then. But in today's age with the lines of country, rock, rap and metal all blurring into a weird mashed up wall of sound the lyrics just didnt fit anymore.
So I threw it at SunoAI and said have fun with it. This was the 10th or 11th generation I did of it and I think it finally nailed it.
Diesel in My Blood
[Verse 1]
I wake up with the sunrise, coffee black and strong,
My big rig's my kingdom, where I truly belong.
From coast to coast, I'm the king of the road,
Every mile's an adventure, every load's a new code.
[Chorus]
I've got Diesel in my Blood, baby, can't you see?
No desk job for me, I'm wild and free!
I'll drive 'til the wheels fall off, 'cause that's my creed,
With Diesel in my Blood, I'm the road's best steed!
[Verse 2]
I've seen the Grand Canyon, I've danced in Nashville,
My life's a story, with a thrill at every hill.
I dodge the road rage, I sing to the tunes,
Every stop's a new chapter, under the silver moon.
[Chorus]
I've got Diesel in my Blood, baby, can't you see?
No cubicle for me, I'm living free!
I'll steer through the night, 'cause that's my beat,
With Diesel in my Blood, I've got the road's heartbeat!
[Bridge]
I've got my CB radio, my co-pilot, my friend,
We share laughs and stories, the road never ends.
From truck stops to diners, I've met all kinds,
But the road's my true love, it's where my heart binds.
[Verse 3]
They say settle down, but I can't stay put,
My truck's my home, my life's an open book.
I've got a love for the road, like a sailor for the sea,
In this diesel truck, I'm as happy as can be.
[Chorus]
I've got Diesel in my Blood, baby, can't you see?
No 9 to 5 for me, I'm living free!
I'll chase the horizon, 'cause that's my thrill,
With Diesel in my Blood, I've got the road's chill!
[Outro]
So here's to all the drivers, with diesel in their veins,
We'll never give it up, we'll drive through the pains.
'Cause life on the road, it's a wild, fun ride,
With Diesel in our Blood, We bound to the road 'til we die!
