VERSE 1
Remember the snowy night in Reno when we met in '95
When you poured me the cup of coffee, I swear changed both our lives
I have steered into your truck stop ever since that day
And now that we're alone at last, there's something I wanna say...if you...

CHORUS
Step into my Kenworth Motel
You will find true love is waiting
In my eighteen wheeler's shell
If you don't take a chance now, how will we ever tell
We may find the love we've dreamed of in my Kenworth Motel
VERSE 2
I have written you letters I was too afraid to send
My heart is saying can we be more than just friends
I think we share a feeling, we've been tryin' to disguise
I'm know you understand me, I can see it in your eyes...... won't you....

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE
I hope you're the one who'll bring my traveling to an end
If that comes true, I'll lock it up and never hit the road again....so won't you.....
REPEAT CHORUS
..........Unless we take a chance how will we ever tell?
We may find the loved we've dreamed of in my Kenworth Motel

Nice up-tempo tune that grabs you from the start. A bit of Merle Haggard in the vocal department. Good story telling.

certainly love has been found in stranger places than in the back of a truck. reminds me of all those songs of finding love in the back of a 1957 Chevy. good song to remember the past.

Just a great authentic feel to the song with fine singing and musicianship throughout. A very original way of inviting someone on board your truck! Great outro with a particularly well held vocal.

This a good country tune.

Very nicely written and arranged country rock tune,extremely well played. Could definitely see in a 1970's Clint Eastwood or Bert Reynolds movie.

Congratulations on a good song!I liked it. I think it has strong appeal for some of the movies as a background drag that I have seen involving truckstop scenes where there's a waitress interacting with A trucker . That seems to be quite a few movies.hope you'll submit this to some of the licensing opportunities for film and television :-)

I liked the classic country feel to this song. We don't hear the old school country as much and that's a shame.

This is a very interesting song theme and could be a tad awkward or misconstrued?? But alas.........it sounds heart felt,honest and may just pass muster in some circles. Love the harmonica, love the vocal, matches the feel of the genre, it has a very simple country approach....would work well in a comedy film at a truck stop scene.......
Good Job..........Thumbs Up

this sounds like a band i used to know from texas. good ole harp playning, a cheerful song it is. "If we dont chance, how will we ever tell"?

Original idea in lyric. I like the harmonica in this. Nice
production.

Nice!! Lyrics are cool. Upbeat toe tapping tune! Vocals are right on. Good job and keep up the good work! This definitely has commercial potential!

had me at the harp, nice vocals i liked the hook,will think hotel when I see a Kenworth, for some reason it takes me back decades ago to Saturday evening country tv shows, the Rhoads show, Porter Wagoner, and the Doyles , just a nice slice of Americana, hope the singer was sincere. A nice song well played and sung

A lighthearted song that makes you feel nostalgic!

Reminds me of Slim Dusty, Loved it, great story, vocal and mix were good.

Really good Song enjoyed it

Great song...

peppy tune, nicely played and sung. Neat story line

REALLY NICE country song--i remember the truck drivers songs--HA HA!--i can almost see this--great imagination!--which could be real!--this should really be on country radio--HA HA!--truckers would love this tune!--cheers--joe.
