I got the pedal to the metal, the sunrise in my mirror
Pullin’ forty tons, I’m grinnin’ ear to ear
White lines an’ pavement an’ open sky
Jus’ rollin’ by

Alabama, Mississippi, Lou’siana, here I come
Livin’ free, drivin’ ‘til the day I'm done
White lines an’ pavement an’ open sky
jus’ rollin’ by

This eighteen wheeler puts the music in my ears
The tires sIngin’ way up high
I like the rhythm when I’m shiftin’ through my gears
With open road and open sky
Jus’ rollin’ by

I run when a truck stop waitress winks at me
She’ll lock me up an’ she’ll  throw away the key
No wife and kids to bleed me dry
I jus’ roll on by

This eighteen wheeler puts the music in my ears
The tires singin’ way up high
I dig that rhythm when I’m shiftin’ through my gears
With open road and open sky
Jus’ rollin’ by

After forty years the sunset lies ahead
Them white lines feel like prison bars instead
A cabin in the woods, a dog right by my side
I’m satisfied

This eighteen wheeler puts the music in my ears
The tires sIngin’ way up high
I love that rhythm when I’m shiftin’ through my gears
With open road and open sky
Jus’ rollin’ by
Yeah, jus’ rollin’ by
Just rollin’ by
