Rollin' Home

(album: Starting New Memories - 1986)

The sun wasn't even up yet when I left Pittsburgh P.A.
With a load of cold steel headed for that volunteer state
Got a woman on my mind waiting back in Tennessee
She's saving all her sweet love for me
And I'm rolling home
Got to keep these big wheels humming their song
And if I'm lucky, by tonight, well
I'll see the lights of Nashville through my windshield
That old sun is sinking down
Lord I'm Dixie bound, going home

Be two weeks ago tomorrow since she watched me drive away
And I know that she knows that I've been counting every day
Lord knows, this endless highway sure gets rough on a man's bones
But she makes the leaving worth it comming home
And I'm rolling home
Got to keep these big wheels humming their song
And if I'm lucky, by tonight, well
I'll see the lights of Nashville through my windshield
Well, I've got that hammer down
Lord, I'm Dixie bound, I'm going home

Well, I'm rolling home
Got to keep these big wheels humming their song
And if I'm lucky, by tonight, well
I'll see the lights of Nashville through my windshield
Well, I've got that hammer down
Lord, I'm Dixie bound, I'm going home

Well, I'm rolling home
Got to keep these big wheels humming their song
And if I'm lucky, by tonight, well
I'll see the lights of Nashville through my windshield
Well, I've got that hammer down
Lord, I'm Dixie bound, I'm going home, going home
