Red dirt on the chrome,
midnight on the clock
Eighty thousand pounds, rolling non-stop Old Interstate Forty stretching out ahead
No time for sleeping in a feather bed
I can hear those big wheels hummin' down the line
Counting down the miles till I see her and I'm on time
(roll on)
Oh, eighteen wheels and a heart of steel
Rolling through the dark is the only way I feel Got a
payload of hope and a dashboard light Just an old freight hauler
in the middle of the night
Coffee in a paper cup,
static on the dial Been staring at these headlights for another hundred
miles But the gear-shift is ready and the engine is strong Just
keeping her steady, humming along
Oh, eighteen wheels and a heart of steel
Rolling through the dark is the only way I feel Got a
payload of hope and a dashboard light Just an old freight hauler
in the middle of the night
Rolling through the night...
(just roll on) Keep those wheels turning...
