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've got to make just one more stop to pick up a ring at Little Rock

And I'm a-gonna head this semi straight for home"

14-wheeled a-whinin', four big headlights shinin'

Him and that semi been away too long

Hope he don't get stop from speedin'

'Cause I've got everything he's needin'

Waitin' for him right here at home

He's got that big ol' engine singin', singin' my favorite song

And I know he's headin' my way, rollin' down the highway

Tonight my baby's comin' home

For ten thousand miles, I've missed him

It's been a week since I kissed him

And 40 truckstops since I held him tight

A million chick 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 ol' engine singin', singin' my favorite song

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

I know he's headin' my way, rollin' down the highway

Tonight my baby's comin' home
