Bonnie Jean (Little Sister)
By David Lynn Jones


E                         A      E 
Peter built a truck for a man to drive
       E                         B         E
It�s a pretty good livin� but it ain�t no life
      E                      A           E
For a farmer�s daughter or a drunk man�s wife
E                         B      A
Peter built a truck for a man to drive
E                         B      A    
Peter built a truck for a man to drive


Well little sister was just 17 
When she left the farm, virgin green
Moved up to Kansas City her school girl dream
But nothin� ever came easy for Bonnie Jean
Nothin� ever came easy for Bonnie Jean

Now she fell in love with a truck drivin man
They got married on a hard luck plan
Little babies are somethin� every good woman needs
So he left her with three hungry mouths to feed
He left her with three hungry mouths to feed


Chorus:
     A                      E
Now little sister rolls them eighteen wheels
    B                       E
She knows how that lonesome highway feels
          A                 E 
She got a heart of gold and nerves of steel
E                        B        E 
Little sister rolls them eighteen wheels
E                        B        E
Little sister rolls them eighteen wheels---here she comes now

Sax solo

She�s a-runnin� down the road from coast to coast
It�s the little things that she misses the most
She�s a mother all day and a trucker all night
Livin� on coffee and mini-whites
Livin� on coffee and mini-whites

Now the egg don�t fry and the bacon don�t burn
There�s another curve around every turn
She�s in love with Kenny and Billy and Mac
She�s lost on that highway and she ain�t comin� back
Lost on that highway and she ain�t comin� back
