We've been driving allnight long just to reach our destination in your town
We've been five hundred miles everyones asleep there's not a sound
Ooh eighteen weels a-rolling, eighteen weels a-rolling round and round
Please mister driver won't you pull over here we're really hungry
Well we'll have 14 steak and eggs, 14 orange juice and 14 cups of coffee
Let's get back on the bus, this is one place that I really wanna see
Well we're 18 Miles from Memphis
18 Miles to Memphis
Yeah, 18 Miles to Memphis
18 Miles to Memphis
Got a rocket in my pocket and I hit the fuse
Taking off in your direction have you heard the news
We're just 18 Miles to Memphis and we won't leave 'til I rocked you all
Alabama, Missisippi, Florida, Louisiana, big 'ol Texas
From New England down to Georgia, Kansas City, Colorado, California
Well it's the last night of our tour,
We're gonna rock you thru the roof, just wait and see
Yeah we're 18 Miles from Memphis
18 Miles to Memphis
Ooh, 18 Miles to Memphis
18 Miles to Memphis
Yeah, 18 Miles to Memphis
18 Miles to Memphis
ooh, 18 Miles to Memphis
18 Miles to Memphis
Well we're 18 Miles to Memphis and we won't leave 'til we rocked you all
