Rollin' Lonely - Johnny Lee

The diesel’s racing

I passed a waystation

Way back down the road

I’m paying no heed to the limit on speed

I just can’t take it slow

I’ve made 400 miles since 4:00 am

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

Eighteen wheels

Are signing out your name

I’m moving like lightning through the pouring rain

Rollin' lonely all the way to Memphis tonight

The signs are flashing

The cars are passing

Headlights were blinding 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

'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

'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
