Roll On Eighteen Wheeler - Alabama |[Chorus] |[D] Roll on highway, roll on [G] along, [D] Roll on daddy till you get back [G] home |[D] Roll on family, roll on [G] crew, [D] Roll on momma like I asked you to do, |[Em] And roll on eighteen-[A]wheeler, roll on. [Verse 1] Well, it's [D] Monday morning, he's kissin momma goodbye, He's up and gone with the [Bm] sun [G] Daddy drives an eighteen-wheeler, and he's off on a [D] midwest run As [D] three sad faces gather round momma, they ask her when daddy's comin [Bm] home [G] Daddy drives an eighteen-wheeler And they sure miss him when he's [D] gone (yeah they do) Ah, but he [G] calls them every [D] night, And [Em] he tells them that he loves [A] them, And he taught them this song to sing. |[Chorus] |[D] Roll on highway, roll on [D] along, Roll on daddy till you get [G] back home |[D] Roll on family, roll on [G] crew, [D] Roll on momma like I asked you to do, |[Em] And roll on eighteen-[A]wheeler, roll on. Verse 2: Well, it's [D] Wednesday evening, momma's waitin by the phone, It rings but it's not his [Bm] voice Seems the [G] highway patrol has found a jackknifed rig, In a snow bank in [D] Illinois But the [D] driver was missin And the search had been abandoned. Cause the weather had everything [Bm] stalled And they had [G] checked all the houses and the local motels, When they had some more news they'd [D] call And she [G] told them when they [D] found him, To [Em] tell him that she loved [A] him, And she hung up the phone singin. [Chorus] [Bridge] [Bm] Momma and the children will be [F] waiting up all night long Thinkin' [G] nothing but the worst is comin With the [D] ringin of the telephone Oh, but the [Bm] man upstairs was listening When momma asked [G] him to bring daddy home And when the [Em] call came in it was daddy on the other end [A] Askin' her if she had been singin the song, singin. |[Chorus] |[D] Roll on highway, roll on [D] along, Roll on daddy till you get [G] back home |[D] Roll on family, roll on [G] crew, [D] Roll on momma like I asked you to do, |[Em] And roll on eighteen-[A] wheeler, roll on. [Outro] [D] Eighteen-[G]wheeler, [D] Eighteen-[G]wheeler, [D] Eighteen-[G]wheeler, [D] Eighteen-[G]wheeler, [D] Roll on, Roll on...
