Truckin’ (Live at Boston Music Hall, Boston, MA, December 2, 1973) The Grateful Dead

[Chorus 1]
Truckin', got my chips cashed in
Keep truckin’, like the do-dah man
Together, more or less in line
Just keep truckin' on

[Verse 1]
Arrows of neon and flashing marquees out on Main Street
Chicago, New York, Detroit and it's all on the same street
Your typical city involved in a typical daydream
Hang it up and see what tomorrow brings

[Chorus 2]
Dallas, got a soft machine
Houston, too close to New Orleans
New York got the ways and means
But just won’t let you be

[Verse 2]
Most of the cats you meet on the street speak of true love
Most of the time they're sittin' and cryin' at home
One of these days they know they better get goin'
Out of thе door and down on the street all alone

[Chorus 3]
Truckin', like thе do-dah man
Once told me "You've got to play your hand"
And sometimes your cards ain't worth a dime
If you don’t lay ’em down
