the sun's goin' down on me, thoughts of her keep hauntin' me,
desperation's takin' hold
my hands are on the steerin' wheel, but my heart's back in louisville, at the far end of a thousand miles of road
chorus
my mind's grindin' like a steel gear baby, i've gotta cover some ground, she'd know how hard and fast i'm fallin' for her if she could just hear sound, of the hammer goin' down
now I'm not gonna waste my time talkin' on some pay phone line, words don't get the message through
if this rig will hold out one more day, she'll hear me fourty miles away,
tearin' this four lane half in two
repeat chorus
now she ain't just some truck stop queen, she's the light guiding me,
a thousand miles for her love
well I'd go a million for one kiss, drive those pistons with my fist,
and do it all again if it ain't enough
repeat chorus
