Tell mama tonight I won’t be comin’ home
Me and that eighteen wheels gonna git’ it on down the road
Tell mama I’ll surely miss her when I’m gone
But that long lonesome highway goes on - on and on
I met her at the Dixie when she brought my ham and eggs
We got to talkin’ and soon we was on a date
I love her and she loves me a gold wedding band
I parked that truck behind the barn and went out to farm the land
Tell mama …
Well I never cared for farmin’ and I miss my big old truck
I parked that John Deere tractor and went to try my luck
Dumpin’ dirt haulin’ sand and soon got my fill
It wasn’t long and I was gone a workin’ at the mill
Tell mama …
I started gittin’ restless no matter how I tried
I hated makin’ paper and being stuck inside
There just ain’t no denyin’ I miss that open road
I dusted off that ole’ Peterbilt and lined me up a load
Tell mama …
Well I love my wife and baby my house up on the hill
She knows I need my truckin’ she knows I always will
When the sun comes up on Sunday I grab my coffee cup
And I’ll slip off behind the barn and I’ll fire that diesel up
Tell mama tonight I won’t be comin’ home
‘Cause me and that three five nine …
But that long lonesome highway goes on - on and on
Tell mama
