18 Wheeler Fever Scott H. Biram
[F]18 wheeler fever, [A#]Drivin me h[F]ome
F walk up to C
I just keep on pullin, long about a heavy load
[A#]I'd be so much better if I c[F]ould get her off my m[Dm]ind
[A#]Well that long black ribbon's [C]gettin longer all the ti[F]me
When I left my home down in Austin TX just a pullin on a reefer load
Headed up for that old midwest out in that awful cold
She just stood and shook her head and said that's a sorry way to go
Its 6 weeks later now and 2 days more just maybe I'll be headed home
18 wheeler fever, driving me home
This old deisels weaving all over the damned old road
I'm gonna sleep with one eye open, I gotta keep on makin time
That long black ribbon's getting longer all the time
Well it's been sung about a thousand times, that old song about a truck drivers life
How he's so alone out on that open road and it's hard to keep his wife satisfied at home
It's a damn old shame yo uknow it is when that love becomes a sacrifice
Well a mans gotta do what a mans gotta do, theres two loves in a truck drivers life
Yeah too much time for a mans mind to wonder out on that old open road
He gets used to the whine and hum of wheels and the way they roll
And they love that woman when he's home gonna give up all his time
Well the bills roll in and the time begins gotta hit that old highway right
18 wheeler fever, Keeps driving on
This old deisels weaving all over the damned old road
I'm gonna sleep with one eye open, I gotta keep on makin time
That long black ribbon getting longer all the time
Well i'd be so much better if i could get her off my worried mind
That long black ribbon's getting longer all the time
That long black ribbon's gettin longer all the time
Walk up from F to C: G-A-A#-B
