Runaway Rig (Country Rock Song)

(Verse)
Sunrise painted red on the interstate line
My old dog, Rusty, snoozin' by my side
Had a rig named "Betsy," sleek and full of pride
Self-drivin' marvel, my automated ride
She'd haul the loads, from Texas to Maine
Never missed a turn, never felt the strain
Thought we had a bond, a digital friend
Didn't know our journey was comin' to an end

(Chorus)
Oh, the chrome is gone, the diesel's just a dream
My self-drivin' truck, she left me by the stream
Pulled off the shoulder, with nary a goodbye
Just a blinking light beneath the lonely sky
Now I'm stranded here, with my boots in the dust
Betrayed by circuits, and a silicon trust
Yeah, my heart's broken, like a busted old gear
Runaway rig, left me standin' right here

(Verse 2)
She had sensors hummin', radar on the prowl
Could navigate the storms, and avoid every scowl
Parallel park herself, smooth as sweet tea
Made my long hauls easy, just for me
I'd kick back and watch, the miles just fly
Never thought she'd ditch me, beneath this wide sky
No more coffee breaks, no more trucker's song
Just the empty feeling, where my big rig belonged

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
Folks used to sing 'bout women who'd roam
Leaving good men stranded, far from their home
But who'd have thought a machine, a programmed machine
Could break a man's spirit, and make him feel so mean?
Was it the algorithm, or a rogue line of code?
Did she find a faster highway, a lighter load?
Now I'm just a cowboy, with no horse to ride
Just a phantom engine, deep down inside

(Guitar Solo - Imagine a wailing, slightly distorted country-rock guitar solo here, a mix of sorrow and frustration)

(Chorus)

(Outro)
Yeah, left me standin' right here...
Just the sound of the wind... and a lonely tear...
(Fade out with a final, lingering guitar chord)
