Eighteen Wheels And A Dozen Roses Lyrics

Charlie's got a gold watch 

Don't seem like a whole lot 

After
thirty years of drivin' 

Up and down the interstate 

But Charlie's
had a good life 

And Charlie's got a good wife 

And after tonight
she'll no longer 

be countin' the days 





CHORUS 



Eighteen wheels and a dozen roses 

Ten more miles on his four
day run 

A few more songs on the all night radio 

And he'll spend
the rest if his life 

with the one that he loves 





They'll buy a Winnebago 

Set out to find America 

Do a lotta
catchin' up 

A little at a time 



With pieces of the old
dream 

They're gonna light the old flame 

Doin' what they please


Leavin every other reason behind 



(Repeat CHORUS) 



(Instrumental) 



(Repeat CHORUS)
