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 coming 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 chicks and he can get them
They wanna make love and he won't let them
The only thing he wants he'll get tonight
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 coming home
And I know he's heading my way
Rolling down the highway
Tonight my baby's coming home
And I know he's heading my way
Rolling down the highway
Tonight my baby's coming home
