Roll On, Big Mama

[Intro]
Roll on, big mama

[Chorus]
I said roll on (roll on), big mama
I like the way you sing
Roll on (roll on), big mama
The nighttime lets her breathe

[Verse 1]
Well, the feel of the wheel delivers me
From a life where I don't want to be
And the diesel smoke with every stroke
Sings a song with a heavy note
And rambling is the life I chose
Sitting here between the doors
And the yellow line keeping time
With the things that's a-running through my mind
Through my mind

[Chorus]
Roll on (roll on), big mama
I like the way you roll
Roll on (roll on), big mama
You are my very soul

[Verse 2]
On through the snow and the driving rain
Through the forty below out in Bangor, Maine
To the hundred and ten in the Texas sun
There ain't no road that we ain't run
Up through the Colorado mountaintops
Down to the desert where Reno stops
North to the green of Coeur D'Alene
There ain't no road that we ain't seen
We ain't seen

[Chorus]
Roll on (roll on), big mama
You're singing out my song
Roll on (roll on), big mama
The highway is our home

[Bridge]
Roll on (roll on), big mama
Roll on (roll on), big mama

[Outro]
Ah, breaker one nine for that silver road hog
You got a copy on the Roadshow, Mr. Stampley?
Ah, son, what's the smoky situation thataway? Come on
Ah, mighty fine, I'm a-coming, I'm a-coming, son
Going to put her in the big hole, come on
Ah, look at that black smoke roll back there
Look like a big old train
