With raindrops on my windshield and teardrops on my stirring wheels

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

With 18 wheels a humming home sweet home

We've got a lot in common we keep each other goin'

Me and this old truck a hangin' on

We just keep right on rollin' that lonesome stack a blowin'

With 18 wheels a humming home sweet home

[ steel ]

It ain't the latest model and it can't take much trottle

Them shiny rigs ain't been where this one's gone

And we ain't in a hurry we lope along in worry

With 18 wheels a humming home sweet home

With raindrops on my windshield...

With 18 wheels a humming home sweet home
