Alabama Roll On (eighteen Wheeler) Lyrics

Roll On (eighteen Wheeler) Lyrics

Hey how bout you alabama roll on

chorus:
Roll on highway, roll on
along
Roll on daddy till you get back home
Roll on family, roll on
crew
Roll on momma like I asked you to do
And roll on eighteen-wheeler
roll on (roll on)

Well it's Monday morning, he's kissin' momma
goodbye
He's up and gone with the sun
Daddy drives an
eighteen-wheeler
And he's off on a midwest run
As three sad faces gather
round momma
They ask her when daddy's comin' home
Daddy drives an
eighteen-wheeler
And they sure miss him when he's gone (yeah they do)
Ah,
but he calls them everynight and he tells them that he loves them
He taught
them this song to sing

chorus:
Roll on highway, roll on along
Roll
on daddy till you get back home
Roll on family, roll on crew
Roll on
momma
like I asked you to do
And roll on eighteen-wheeler roll on (roll
on)

Well it's Wednesday evening, momma's waitin by the phone
It rings
but it's not his voice
Seems the highway patrol has found a jacknifed
rig
In a snow bank in Illinois
But the driver was missin' and the search
had been abandoned

For the weather had everything stalled
And they
had
checked all the houses and local motels
When they had somemore news they'd
call
And she told them when they found him to tell him that she loved
him
And she hung up the phone singin'

chorus:
Roll on highway,
roll
on along
Roll on daddy till you get back home
Roll on family, roll on
crew
Roll on momma like I asked you to do
And roll on eighteen-wheeler
roll on (roll on)

Momma and the children will be waiting up all night
long
Thinkin' nothing but the worst is comin'
With the ringin' of the
telephone
Oh, but the man upstairs was listenin'
When momma asked him to
bring daddy home
And when the call came in it was daddy on the other
end
Askin' her if she had been singin' his song,
singin'

chorus:
Roll on highway, roll on along
Roll on daddy till
you get back home
Roll on family, roll on crew
Roll on momma like I asked
you to do
And roll on eighteen-wheeler roll on

chorus:
Roll on
highway, roll on along
Roll on daddy till you get back home
Roll on
family, roll on crew
Roll on momma like I asked you to do
And roll on
eighteen-wheeler roll on (roll
on)

eighteen-wheeler
eighteen-wheeler
eighteen-wheeler
eighteen-wheeler

Roll
on
Roll on
