Charlie's got a gold watch... don't seem like a whole lot. After thirty years of drivin' up & down the interstate. But, Charlie's had a good life... and Charlie's got a good wife. And after tonight, she'll no longer be countin' the days. Eighteen wheels... and a dozen roses. Ten more miles... on his four day run. A few more songs... from the all night radio. Then, he'll spend the rest of his life, with one that he loves. They'll buy a winnebago... set out to find America. They'll do a lot of catchin' up... a little time at a time. With pieces of the old dream... they're gonna light the old flame. Doing what they please... leavin' every other, reason behind. Eighteen wheels,,, and a dozen roses. Ten more miles,,, on his four day run. A few more songs,,, from the all night radio. Then, he'll spend the rest of his nights, with the one that he loves. Eighteen wheels... and a dozen roses. Ten more miles... on his four day run. A few more songs... from the all night radio. Then, he'll spend the rest of his life, with the one that he loves. |
