With raindrops on my windshield and teardrops on my steering wheel
This lonely truck's the only thing I own
In my heart I'm pining while her old engine's whining
With 18 wheels a humming home sweet home
I had a gal in Texas she walked away and left us
This old truck's all I'm depending on
Sometimes I overwork her but I never would desert her
18 wheels a humming home sweet home
We've got a lot in common we keep each other going
Me and this old truck are a hanging on
We just keep right on a rolling that lonesome stack a smoking
With 18 wheels a humming home sweet home
Well it ain't the latest model and it can't take much throttle
Them shiny rigs ain't been where this one's gone
We ain't in a hurry we lope along and worry
With 18 wheels a humming home sweet home
Repeat #1
With 18 wheels a humming home sweet home
