I got a 5th wheel trailer and 20 tons of rolling stock Interstate 40 heading out of Little Rock And there's a vacant part that's Standing neath the glow of a neon sign Staring down that lonesome highway waiting on this rig of mine 18 wheels, 15 gears Diesel smoke when it clears Truckstop mama she won't cry Cause I've got 33 reasons to say goodbye She's a truckstop woman with a Born To Run tattoo I'm a diesel hauling daddy always passing through And we both known love's a rolling Dream that sometimes stays till dawn But a woman and a man do the best they can When you've got to be moving on 18 wheels, 15 gears... So long honey, see you on the turnaround Daylight's burning and I'm California bound And she'll watch my white freightliner fade on out of sight And start looking for an eastbound Jimmy that's rolling into town tonight 18 wheels, 15 gears...
