Lyrics
ROLLIN' ON DOWN THE ROAD

Woke up this morning,
Had a cup of Joe packed up my rig and hit the road
Started out in Memphis Tennessee
Wound up that night in Kankakee
There's another job waitin'
Just around the bend
This truck drivin' life just never ends
Chorus:
We gotta roll, roll on down the road
We gotta roll, roll on down the road
We gotta roll, roll on down the road
We gotta roll, roll on down the road
Made my way down to New Orleans
Then headed back out for Abilene
Picked up a load in east LA
Then pointed my rig towards Santa Fe
Louisville, Chicago and Baton Rouge
Can't stop now there's no time to lose
(Chorus)
Stopped in Tulsa for a little rest
Then back on the road
And headed west
Trailer swayin' in the desert night
Headlights shinin' through the pale moonlight
Arrived on time and dropped my load
A good night's sleep then back on the road
(Chorus)
