[F] it's Wednesday evening, mama's waiting by the phone.
It rings but it's not [Dm] his voice.
[Bb] Seems the highway patrol has found a jackknifed rig in a snowbank in [F] Illinois.
But the driver was missing and the search had been abandoned.
Cause the weather had [Dm] everything stalled.
[Bb] And they had checked all the houses and the local motels.
When they had some more news [F] they called.
[Bb] And she told them when they found [Gm] him to tell them [C] that she loved him.
And she hung up the phone singing.
[F] Roll on highway, roll [Bb] on along, [F] roll on daddy till you get [Bb] back home.
[F] Roll on family, roll [Bb] on crew, [F] roll on mama like I ask you to do.
[Gm] And roll on [C] 18 -wheeler, [Dm] roll on.
Mama and the children [Am] will be waiting up all night.
[Bb] Thinking nothing but the worst is coming [F] with the ringing of the telephone.
[Dm] Oh, and upstairs was listening when [Bb] mama asked him to bring daddy home.
And [Gm] when the call came in it was daddy on the other [C] end.
Asking her if she had better sing him a song.
[F] Singing roll on highway, [Bb] roll on along, [F] roll on daddy till you [Bb] get back home.
[F] Roll on family, [Bb] roll on crew,
[F] roll on mama like I ask you to do.
[Gm] And roll on [C] 18-wheeler, [F] roll on.
Roll [Bb] [F]
on!
