Some days i think this old machine is out to get me
Some days she does what i tell her
It's like dancing with a widow-maker forty hours a week
You know i'm talkin' 'bout a big ol' d-10 caterpillar

I don't know why i like to drive 'em like i do
You know it ain't nothin' but a
Hundred and seventy-five thousand pounds of steel
Could be the money, babe, could be the power
Could be i love the way it feels, could be i love the way it feels

But you know she's mighty unforgivin', so you got to pay attention
You know a d-10 can be the death of you
But i get her all fired up and i can feel it in my soul
You know it's hard to tell who's drivin' who

And i can move alaska all the way to beirut
I can bulldoze a beeline from here to peru
I can push the rocky mountains into the sea
You know heavy metal don't mean rock and roll to me

But you know i'm like a modern day mule skinner
I'm drivin' ten thousand mules so i got to say a little prayer every day
Lord, just let me get her turned around
Without fallin' down this mountain
'cause you know the boss don't like me treatin' his d-10 that way
