[Verse 1]
Just outside Columbus, thumbed a diesel down
Ninety miles-an-hour, now I know deep down
Been too long since I seen the ol' hometown
Been too long since I saw you

[Pre-Chorus]
And I just might ride on through the night
I just got to see that highway stretched out behind me

[Chorus]
And I got eighteen wheels
They're gonna take me back to you
I got no good reason to stay here
I'll be steady rollin'
By this time tomorrow mornin'
I'll be in your arms
Be in your arms, my dear

[Verse 2]
Loaded up after the show
After six long weeks out on the road
I got that pedal to the metal
Down this endless double yellow
Headed home
[Pre-Chorus]
And I just might ride on through the night
I just got to see that highway stretched out behind me

[Chorus]
And I got four good wheels
They're gonna take me back to you
I got no good reason to stay here
I'll be steady rollin'
By this time tomorrow mornin'
I'll be in your arms
Be in your arms, my dear

[Verse 3]
[?] on a railroad track in the pouring rain
Gotta get back up into that saddle once again
And now I'm peddlin' like hell
And the roads are all downhill from here

[Chorus]
And I got two good wheels
They're gonna take me back to you
I got no good reason to stay here
I'll be steady rollin'
By this time tomorrow mornin'
I'll be in your arms
Be in your arms
I'll be steady rollin'
By this time tomorrow mornin'
I'll be in your arms
Be in your arms, my dear
