Hammer Goin' Down - The Road Hammers

I don't really know what to say. This song has always had special meanings to me... and right now when ever I hear it - this one girl keeps coming to mind. The lyrics are bellow... see if you can make sense of what I mean.

"The sun's going down on me, thoughts of her keep hauntin' me.
Desperation's takin hold.
My hands are on the stearin wheel but my heart's back in Louisville.
At the far end of a thousand miles of road.

My mind's grindin like a steel gear baby, I've got to cover some ground.
She'd know how hard and fast I'm fallin for her.
If she could just hear the sound, of the hammer goin down.

Now I ain't gonna waste my time talking on some pay phone line.
Words don't get the message through.
If this rig will hold out one more day she'll hear me 40 miles away.
Tearin this four lane half in two.

My mind's grindin like a steel gear baby , I've got to cover some ground.
She'd know how hard and fast I'm fallin for her.
If she could just hear the sound, of the hammer goin down.

Now she ain't just some truck stop queen.
Man, she's the light guiding me a thousand miles for her love.
Well I'd go a million for one kiss, I'd drive those pistons with my fist.
And do it all again if it ain't enough.

My mind's grindin like a steel gear baby , I've got to cover some ground.
She'd know how hard and fast I'm fallin for her.
If she could just hear the sound, of the hammer goin down.
If she could just hear the sound, of the hammer goin.
Of the hammer goin down.

The sun's going down on me.
My hearts back on Louisville."
