_ _ _ [A] _ Well [E] it's Monday morning, he's kissing mama goodbye.
He's up and gone with [Dbm] the song.
_ _ [A] Daddy drives an 18 [A]-wheeler, _ and he's off on a [E] Midwest run. _ _ _ _
_ And three sad faces gather round mama, they ask her when daddy's [Dbm] coming home.
_ _ [A] Daddy drives an 18-wheeler, _ and they sure miss [E] him when he's gone.
_ You gotta do it.
_ [A] Ah, but he calls [Abm] her every [Gbm] night and tells her [B] that he loves her.
He taught him this song [E] to sing.
Roll on highway, roll [A] on along, [E] roll on daddy till you get [A] back home.
[E] Roll on family, roll [A] on crew, [E] roll on mama like I ask you to do.
[Gbm] And roll on [B] 18-wheeler, [E] roll on. Roll on!

_ _ _ [Bb] _ Well [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 jackknife 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.
And [Bb] they had checked all the houses and the local motels.
When they had some more news, [F] they called.
_ _ _ And [Bb] she told [Am] him when they found [Gm] him to tell him that [C] she loved him.
And she hung up the phone [F] singing.
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 long.
_ _ [Bb] Thinking nothing but the worst is coming with [F] the ringing of the telephone.
_ Oh, [Dm] the man 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 end.
[C] Asking her if she'd had better sing him a song.
[F] Singing 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 [Gm] do.
And roll on [C] 18-wheeler, _ roll on highway, [F] roll on along, roll on daddy till you get back home.
Roll on family, roll [Bb] on [F] crew, roll on mama like I ask you to do.
[Gm] And roll on [C] 18-wheeler, [F] roll on. _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ [F] _ _ 18 _ [Bb]-wheeler, _ [F] _ _ 18 _ [Bb]-wheeler, [F] _ _ _ 18 _ [Bb] _ [F]-wheeler, _ _ 18 [Bb]-wheeler. _ _ _ _ _
[F] And roll on. _ _ _ _
