Lyrics
500 miles left on a seven day run
I can't wait to get back to where I started from
My wife's on the front poarch cotton dress blowing in the wind
waiting for me and this rig to come rolling in
She don't like me on the road
But little will she say
She knows I gotta make a living
We got bills to pay
She knows theres no glamer in a truckers life
And her only glory comes fron being a truckers wife
(Course)
My foot gets a little heavy when she crosses my mind
I can't wait to see that ole state line
so roll on ole Mackie don't you move to slow
I'm getting closer to my baby everytime the wheels roll.
(Vers 2)
Bill Monroe on the radio mandolin strummin
Antenas keeping time 18 wheels a hummin
I can't wait to see that girl cause I've been gone too long
15 states two loads of freight & I'm finally headed home.
(Course)
