Lyrics
How Austin Met Charlotte
Written by Kenny Ray Horton
Verse 1
Austin left early out of Texas loaded heavy
Eighteen wheels out on the blacktop headed north
By nightfall he should be in Kansas City
But he stopped to grab a bite to eat just off I-44
Verse 2
Charlotte?s been drivin? quite a while out of the Carolina?s
Known as the Barbie in the Kenworth headed for the great divide
But she broke down just outside of Joplin
It was there that two strangers met each others eyes
Chorus
That?s the story ?bout how Austin met Charlotte
South Texas headed north and still ran into Carolina
Eighteen wheels brought them together
And the cloverleaf will show them how the knot gets tied
That's the story 'bout how Austin met Charlotte
Verse 3
Now the highway is what keeps them together
Hauling loads from coast to coast sittin? side by side
Someday they?ll settled down out in the country
Since they met there in the middle they?re enjoyin? the ride
Chorus
