Widowmaker, Widowmaker, [D] were the words so bright and big,
Hanging cross the bumper [E] of a shiny [D] rig?
Billy Mike kissed Wanda, and [A] then climbed [D] into his rig,
Said he'd be back a Tuesday [A] night, so plan on [D] something big.
[G] That big red diesel [D] roared to [G] life, and Bill was held [D] abound,
The wheels were humming, Wanda [A] and, as he rode [D] out of town.
[G] Twenty hundred [D] RPMs [G] were showing [D] on the tack,
But no one knew this was the last [A] long ride for [D] Billy Mike.
[G] Widowmaker, Widowmaker, [D] only Bill could understand,
Was going to make a widow [A] out of pretty [D] Wanda Anne.
[A] [D]
Just a few more miles, and Bill [A] was on that [D] mountain range,
Word dead ahead, a pickup [A] full of kids blocked [D] both the lanes.
[G] Bill hit the air, [D] and then he fell, [G] his trailer [D] sliding sway,
And the pickup driver made no [A] move to help him [D] clear the way.
[F#] [G] He just had [D] time to think of Wanda, [G] as he [D] fought the will,
Then Billy Mike was buried [A] under twenty [D] tons of steel.
[G] One life for ten [D] has always been [G] a diesel [D] driver's code,
That's why Billy slung that widowmaker
[A] off the [D]
road.
