Charlie's got a gold watch Don't seem like a whole lot After thirty years of drivin' Up and 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 on the all night radio And he'll spend the rest if his life With the one that he loves
They'll buy a Winnebago Set out to find America Do a lotta catchin' up A little at a time
With pieces of the old dream They're gonna light the old flame Doin' 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 on the all night radio And he'll spend the rest if his life With the one that he loves
[Instrumental]
Eighteen wheels and a dozen roses Ten more miles on his four day run A few more songs on the all night radio And he'll spend the rest if his life With the one that he loves.
