[Verse 1]
Well it was mornin' when I left Alabama
It must have been around in mid-July
I got behind a chicken truck from Georgia
And the feathers was a flyin' like snow out of the sky

[Verse 2]
I couldn't get up to speed enough to pass him
And a funny smell was a gettin' close to me
And somethin' keeps on messing up my windshield
And the farther I go, the harder it get's to see

[Chorus]
Chicken truck, chicken truck, behind it I'm stuck
Chicken truck chicken truck, it's just my luck
Chicken truck on Highway 65
Well, the hens are a squawkin' and the roosters are a crowin'
They're slowin' me down when I need to get goin'
Chicken truck on Highway 65

[Verse 3]
He slowed down and I finally got around him
On a big long hill just south of Tennessee
He had a box of Colonel Sanders on his dashboard
And he was eatin' fried chicken and throwin' his bones on me
[Chorus]
Chicken truck, chicken truck, behind it I'm stuck
Chicken truck, chicken truck, it's just my luck
Chicken truck on Highway 65
Well, the hens are a squawkin' and the roosters are a crowin'
He's slowin' me down when I need to keep goin'
Chicken truck on Highway 65

[Outro]
Chicken truck, chicken truck, behind it I'm stuck
Chicken truck, chicken truck, Lord, it's just my luck
Chicken truck, chicken truck
Chicken truck, chicken truck
