Well, the midnight headlight Find you on a rainy night Steep grade up ahead Slow me down Makin' no time I gotta keep rolling
Those windshield wipers Slappin' out a tempo Keepin' perfect rhythm With the song on the radio I gotta keep rolling
Chorus: Ooh, I'm driving my life away Looking for a better way for me Ooh, I'm driving my life away Looking for a sunny day
Well, the truck stop cutie Comin' on to me Tried to talk me into a ride Said, I wouldn't be sorry
But, she was just a baby Well, waitress Pour me another cup of coffee Pop me down Jack me up Shoot me out Flyin' down the highway Lookin' for the morning
Chorus
Well, the midnight headlight Find you on a rainy night Steep grade up ahead Slow me down Makin' no time I gotta keep rolling
Those windshield wipers Slappin' out a tempo Keepin' perfect rhythm With the song on the radio I gotta keep rolling
Chorus x 3
