Lyrics
Old Jacob he?s a trucker ? everyday he tells you so
Racing down the highway doing ? ninety-five or more
Sure he knows the outcome of an ? overturned big rig
?A wimp I?m not? is what he says ?? ain?t never happened yet?
Don?t that beat all? Don?t that beat all!
Jacob?s bad decisions always work out in the end
Doesn?t matter what he does blind luck saves again
Oh what I?d give ? For Jacob?s Breaks
Ya Jacob?s breaks ? Oh Jacob?s Breaks
Oh what I?d give ? For Jacob?s Breaks
Jacob?s on the corner ? stirring trouble up again
Picks a fight with the biggest man ? Lord knows he?ll wind up dead
But when the dust has settled ? and the reckonings at an end
Jacob?s left a smiling ? not a scratch upon his head
Don?t that beat all? Don?t that beat all!
Jacob?s bad decisions always work out in the end
Doesn?t matter what he does blind luck saves again
Oh what I?d give ? For Jacob?s Breaks
Ya Jacob?s breaks ? Oh Jacob?s Breaks
Oh what I?d give ? For Jacob?s Breaks
When fate caught up on a lonely road ? to take old Jake away
The trucking world cried a tear but ? laughed on that same day
Cause when they cleared the wreck away ? unhurt Jake stood to say
?Lord you might just want me back ? but I told you not today!?
Don?t that beat all? Don?t that beat all!
Jacob?s bad decisions always work out in the end
Doesn?t matter what he does blind luck saves again
Oh what I?d give ? For Jacob?s Breaks
Ya Jacob?s breaks ? Oh Jacob?s Breaks
Oh what I?d give ? For Jacob?s Breaks
