The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
And darlin', I still hear your name
Through the windshield wipers and the drivin' rain
I'll be crossed the rocky mountains in the mornin'
And it's one too many lonely nights
When the highway comes to be the way of life
Seems like about the time I'm gettin' near I'm goin'
Hear that peterbilt whine down the solid white line
Don't make no money if I don't make it there on time
Houston, Dallas, San Antone, wind it up until I'm home
I've got fourteen gears to get you back in my arms
But if I know that you'll be waitin' there
Then you know that's a weight girl that I can bare
I can see your face in the headlights lonely glaze
With the big ol' moon steady on the rise
And the hammer down across the great divide
I'll be pushin' through till I'm back where I belong
Hear that peterbilt whine down the solid white line
Don't make no money if I don't make it there on time
Houston, Dallas, San Antone, wind it up until I'm home
I've got fourteen gears to get you back in my arms
To watch the sunset on the west arizona sky
To feel the cool wind on a cold el paso night
Hear that peterbilt whine down the solid white line
Don't make no money if I don't make it there on time
Houston, Dallas, San Antone, wind it up until I'm home
And I've got fourteen gears to get you back in my arms
I've got fourteen gears to get you back in my arms
