Hey how bout you alabama roll on

chorus:
Roll on highway, roll onalong
Roll on daddy till you get back home
Roll on family, roll oncrew
Roll on momma like I asked you to do
And roll on eighteen-wheelerroll on (roll on)

Well it's Monday morning, he's kissin' mommagoodbye
He's up and gone with the sun
Daddy drives aneighteen-wheeler
And he's off on a midwest run
As three sad faces gatherround momma
They ask her when daddy's comin' home
Daddy drives aneighteen-wheeler
And they sure miss him when he's gone (yeah they do)
Ah,but he calls them everynight and he tells them that he loves them
He taughtthem this song to sing

chorus:
Roll on highway, roll on along
Rollon daddy till you get back home
Roll on family, roll on crew
Roll on mommalike I asked you to do
And roll on eighteen-wheeler roll on (rollon)

Well it's Wednesday evening, momma's waitin by the phone
It ringsbut it's not his voice
Seems the highway patrol has found a jacknifedrig
In a snow bank in Illinois
But the driver was missin' and the searchhad been abandoned

For the weather had everything stalled
And they hadchecked all the houses and local motels
When they had somemore news they'dcall
And she told them when they found him to tell him that she lovedhim
And she hung up the phone singin'

chorus:
Roll on highway, rollon along
Roll on daddy till you get back home
Roll on family, roll oncrew
Roll on momma like I asked you to do
And roll on eighteen-wheelerroll on (roll on)

Momma and the children will be waiting up all nightlong
Thinkin' nothing but the worst is comin'
With the ringin' of thetelephone
Oh, but the man upstairs was listenin'
When momma asked him tobring daddy home
And when the call came in it was daddy on the otherend
Askin' her if she had been singin' his song,singin'

chorus:
Roll on highway, roll on along
Roll on daddy tillyou get back home
Roll on family, roll on crew
Roll on momma like I askedyou to do
And roll on eighteen-wheeler roll on

chorus:
Roll onhighway, roll on along
Roll on daddy till you get back home
Roll onfamily, roll on crew
Roll on momma like I asked you to do
And roll oneighteen-wheeler roll on (rollon)
