Lyrics

Why He Rolls

He works 6 days a week out on the highway, 7 if you count washing the rig
That takes most the afternoon on Sundays, with a little help from the kids
Sally?s just turned 9 going in 20, she?s the apple of her daddy?s eye
And Thursday he?ll be calling home from Darwin, when Jake turns 5

Don?t know if they really understand why daddy goes
But all week they can?t wait till he gets home
He shares every Sunday making up for time he?s lost
He knows 1 out of 7?s not enough
But they?re the reason why he rolls

12 years he and Mary been together, she?s still as beautiful as when the met
He looks at her and wonders just how lucky, can one man get
He calls her every night to say he loves her, She just smiles and says she loves him more
She knows her only in her world for one day, he leaves at dawn

Don?t know if they really understand why daddy goes
But all week they can?t wait till he gets home
He shares every Sunday making up for time he?s lost
He knows 1 out of 7?s not enough
But they?re the reason why he rolls Why he rolls

Don?t know if they really understand why daddy goes
But all week they can?t wait till he gets home
He shares every Sunday making up for time he?s lost
He knows 1 out of 7?s not enough
But they?re the reason why he rolls, Why he rolls, why he rolls
