Ted Daffan (Theron Eugene Daffan, September 21, 1912 – October 6, 1996) was an American country musician noted for composing the seminal "Truck Driver's Blues" and the much covered Country anthem "Born to Lose." Daffan was born in Beauregard Parish, Louisiana. He lived in Texas in the 1930s, working in an instrument repair shop in Houston. In the late 1930s Western Swing bandleader Milton Brown convinced Daffin to start performing.
