Zeke the Dragon
Lyrics
He rolls out before the Sun can rise
A diesel growl, fire in his eyes
Cab full of coffee, dreams and dust
Zeke the Dragon is a name you trust
From the Smoky Mountains to the desert sand
He’s got the Spirit riding shotgun, hand in hand
When the highway becomes the holy way
The hum of the road sings Hallelujah
Zeke might just be an angel in disguise
Blessings trailing where his shadow flies
Stopped at a diner off Route 84
A waitress cried, Can’t take it any more
He left a hundred tucked under her tray
Said Keep the faith, you’ll find your way
Then he whispered low like a preacher’s hymn
The road is long but Love will win
When the highway becomes the holy way
The hum of the road sings Hallelujah
Zeke might just be an angel in disguise
Blessings trailing wherever his shadow flies
He ain’t got wings, just an angel tat
A cross on the dash and a road-worn map
But every mile he drives, every load he hauls
He always answers Heaven’s call
At a truck stop chapel near Abilene
A drifter swore he’d seen the unseen
Zeke gave me a ride but the words he spoke
Lifted my spirit and gave me hope
The stories spread from state to state
Of a dragon who rolls, leaving grace in his wake
When the highway becomes the holy way
The hum of the road sings Hallelujah
Zeke might just be an angel in disguise
Blessings trailing where his shadow flies
