Lyrics
18 WHEELER
18 WHEELER, ROLLIN' THROUGH THE NIGHT, WHY DO YOU HAVE THIS HOLD ON ME.
I LONG TO TOUCH HER, LONG TO HOLD HER TIGHT, I LONG FOR THE LOVE THAT USED TO BE.
YOU CAME BETWEEN US, YOU DROVE HER AWAY, I WAS WEAK I LET YOU TAKE CONTROL.
YOU TOOK MY MIND, YOU HAD YOUR WAY, AND THEN YOU TOK MY HEART AND SOUL.
CHORUS: THIS OLD HIGHWAY KEEPS CALLIN', NEVER LEAVES ME ALONE, HOW MANY MILES MUST I GO.
I LOST HER LOVE, I LOST MY HOME, I'VE GOT NO MORE TO LOSE I KNOW.
18 WHEELER, YOU'RE SURE KILLIN' ME. THESE MILES ARE DRAGGIN ME DOWN.
YOUR WHEELS ON THE BLACKTOP WERE MUSIC TO ME, BUT NOW I CAN'T STAND THE SOUND.
REPEAT CHORUS.
