A Man Behind His Woman



He cooks and cleans without a fuss
Watches the kids and cleans and dusts
He dresses them in their best clothes
And even wipes their runny nose

When they need help he's there you see
'Cause that's the way that it has to be
He even gets them off to school
Then he's off the work in a carpool

When they come home he's ready again
To cook and clean and take care of them
He feeds and bathes and dresses them all
Then reads them a story at bedtime till asleep they all fall

He does all of this with unselfish pride
For he knows that his wife can't be by his side
She's out making a living with his blessing and love
He's letting her do what she knows and she loves

She's driving the highways of your land and mine
Doing her job with his support and peace of mind
She knows he's behind her and of her job you see
She's a trucker of the highways and always will be
