(bobby carmichael/leslie winn satcher)

he´s been gone for ten long days
burnin´ up that interstate
he´s got a run from coast to coast
i´ve got one more night to go

i love a man with 18 wheels
seventy feet of polished steel
baby makes his livin´ on the road
well he just called from baton rouge
one more stop and he´ll be through
then he´s mine until it´s time to roll
well his home away from home
is in the house that peter built
oh i love a man with 18 wheels
i love a man with 18 wheels

i can´t wait to hear that sound
of that big diesel gearin´ down
we´re gonna act like lovesick kids
we´re gonna make up for the nights we´ve missed

i love a man with 18 wheels
seventy feet of polished steel
baby makes his livin´ on the road
well he just called from baton rouge
one more stop and he´ll be through
then he´s mine until it´s time to roll
well his home away from home
is in the house that peter built
oh i love a man with 18 wheels
i love a man with 18 wheels
