With raindrops on my windshield and teardrops on my steering wheel
This lonely truck's the only thing i own
In my heart i'm pining while her old engine's whining
With 18 wheels a humming home sweet home

I had a gal in texas she walked away and left us
This old truck's all i'm depending on
Sometimes i overwork her but i never would desert her
18 wheels a humming home sweet home

We've got a lot in common we keep each other going
Me and this old truck are a hanging on
We just keep right on a rolling that lonesome stack a smoking
With 18 wheels a humming home sweet home

Well it ain't the latest model and it can't take much throttle
Them shiny rigs ain't been where this one's gone
We ain't in a hurry we lope along and worry
With 18 wheels a humming home sweet home
With 18 wheels a humming home sweet home
