Rollin' Lonely Songtext

von Johnny Lee

The diesel's racin' I passed a waystation
Way back down the road
I'm payin' no heed to the limit on speed
I just can't take it slow
I've made 400 miles since 4am
With 300 more to go
And a little bit of luck
And the grace of my truck
Tonight I'm gonna make it home

'Cause I'm rollin' lonely I need you to hold me
In your arms tonight

I said some things I didn't mean
I just gotta make it right
18 Wheels are signin' out your name
I'm movin' like lightnin' through the pourin' rain
Rollin' lonely all the way to Memphis tonight

The signs are flashin' the cars are passin'
Headlights were blindin' me
But the tears in your eyes when I said goodbye
That's all that I could see
Seems like Texas goes on forever
I'm racin' uphill against time
I'm doin' 78 on this damned interstate
And you're drivin' me out of my mind
