Last night, he called from Dallas
He was having a beer at the Crystal Palace
He said, honey you won't be alone for long
I got to make just one more stop
To pick up a ring in Little Rock
And I'm gonna head this semi straight for home

Fourteen wheels a whining
Four big headlights shining
Him and that semi been away too long
Hope he don't get stop from speeding
'Cause I've got everything he's needing
Waiting for him right here at home

He's got that big ole engine
Singing, singing my favorite song
And I know he's heading my way
Rolling down the highway
Tonight my baby's comin' home

Ten thousand miles
I've missed him
It's been a week since I kissed him
And forty truckstops since I held him tight

A million chick and he can get 'em
They wanna make love and he won't let 'em
The only thing he wants he'll get tonight
He's got that big ole engine singing
And I know he's heading my way...
I know he's heading my way...
I know he's heading my way...
I know he's heading my way...
