Tonight My Baby's Coming Home

Last night, he called from Dallas
He was havin' 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 rig, in Little Rock"
"Then I'm gonna head this semi, straight for home"

Fourteen wheels, a whinin'
Four big headlights, shinin'
Him and that semi, been away too long
Hope he don't get stopped for speedin'
'Cause I've got everythin', he's needin'
Waitin' for him, right here, at home

He's got that big ole engine singin'
Singin', my favorite song
And I know, he's headin' my way
Rollin', 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 chicks, 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 singin'
Singin' my favorite song
And I know, he's headin' my way
Rolling, down the highway
Tonight, my baby's comin' home

I know, he's headin' my way
Rollin', down the highway
Tonight, my baby's comin' home

I know, he's headin' my way
Rollin', down the highway
Tonight, my baby's comin' home

I know, he's headin' my way
Rollin', down the highway
Tonight, my baby's comin' home
