Written the day the truckers rolled eastward down the highway to speak up for freedom and liberty......i had no idea how depressed and actually kind of dead in my heart i had been feeling for such a long long time....just like so many other people around the entire world. The feeling of hope coming back to life lifted me up so much that i could not stop crying. To see them heading out.....such a great big journey for so many....and the salt of the earth kind of folks......heading out for us all. And to see all the families and people of all walks of life standing on overpasses and along the highway in the bitter bitter Canadian cold waving flags, cheering, crying.....just like me, feeling hope again. And most importantly of all....connecting us all in what we were going through....showing us we were so very much NOT alone.....millions of us everywhere feeling the same. This song erupted from my heart that day as i was about to brave the cold to do some chores....i had to stop and sit down with a guitar in all my winter apparel to write this down.....the word FREEDOM erupting from my heart through my vocals with such joy! I ditched the winter clothes and threw this on and videoed it right on the spot.....so i could do my little part such as it is in cheering them on and thanking them....i still and always will thank them with every fibre of my being.....the Canadian Truckers, our American brothers and sisters, and freedom fighters all over the world.....big BIG love, respect, and endless gratitude from me.....

If you see 18 wheels and a lot of heavy metal
Rollin down the highway today,
It ain't just a trucker hauling goods to you,
They're fighting for our freedoms today.

Yeah freedom oh FREEDOM, rollin down the highway today!
Oh FREEDOM, oh freedom...burnin down the highway your way!
No our truckers won't stop till they've saved the day,
Canadian truckers, Canadian truckers are leading the way!

Two small weeks to flatten the curve
Has turned into two years of hell.
Silenced and ignored, and freedoms revoked
In the name of keeping us well?
Well the doctors can't practice,
And the churches can't preach,
And the justice system's long since fell.
No the world can't take another single minute,
So our truckers are dinging the bell!

Yeah freedom oh FREEDOM, rollin down the highway today!
Oh FREEDOM, oh freedom...burnin down the highway your way!
No our truckers won't stop till they've saved the day,
Canadian truckers, Canadian truckers are leading the way!

Where oh where did our Canada go...
And the rest of the whole world too?
Our Canadian truckers, on their wings of rubber,
Are bringing this message to you....
If you stand your ground, and we stand with each other,
There is nothing that we cannot do,
And our country's not lost because it's built on us....
We're Canadian, STRONG and TRUE!!

Yeah freedom oh FREEDOM, rollin down the highway today!
Oh FREEDOM, oh freedom...burnin down the highway your way!
No our truckers won't stop till they've saved the day,
Canadian truckers, Canadian truckers are leading the way!
