Lyrics

Well today my heart i kinda felt like a locomotive
Going’ down the track with the clickety clack but what’s the motive?
And if the train leaves the station at a quarter to nine
I got a funny kinda feeling that I’ll be left behind
It’d be alright if I am empty of a worried mind.

You say alright, what’s the word are you comin’ over for dinner?
I got BBQ, shrimp and grits too I cooked a winner
But I’ve been waitin’ for a minute plus an hour or two
You said you'd be a little late and now you’re followin’ through
It’d be alright if I was empty of a worried mind

CHORUS
Well I try to keep truckin’ just the best that I can
You probably think I don’t even give a damn
But that’s not true. I do. I care a lot I really do
No that’s not true. I do. I care a lot I really do

Now it’s time for the show and I’m in charge of the ride
We gotta load the gear, put it the rear and really fly
If we make it to the venue in record time
It means we won’t be more than just a little behind
It’d be alright if we are empty of a worried mind.

Yeah, the band’s all waitin’, they’ve been waitin’ there all night
They say, where ya been, we’ve been patient again ‘cause that’s our vibe.
But it’s time to play some music, they’re out on the floor
We know that we can do it cuz we’ve done it before
We’ll be alright if we’re empty of a worried mind.

CHORUS
They know I keep truckin’ the best that I can
They don’t even think I don’t even give a damn
But that’s not true. I do. I care a lot I really do
No that’s not true. I do. I care a lot I really do

So let’s talk for a minute, what it means to be empty
It’s not that it’s dull or something to pity
‘Cause if you’re empty of somethin’ then you’re full of some more
I try to keep on point when I walk out the door
And say alright I know, be empty of a worried mind

CHORUS
Well I try to keep truckin’ just the best that I can
Please don’t ever think I don’t give a damn
‘Cause that’s not true. I do. I care a lot I really do
No that’s not true. I do. I care a lot I really do
I really do. I care, I do. I said I do. I care, I do
