If every mile I've driven was a single dollar bill

I would park this truck and through away the key

I'd buy a couple acres and I'd build a little house

And you and I would finally be free


I've got one life on the road and one with you at home

And it feels like one too many when I'm gone

But I need one to make a livin' and one to make it all worthwhile

So, I'll watch the miles slip away so I can finally call it a day


It's been rainin' since Helena and I hope that it don't freeze

'Cause this ol' truck's been pullin' to the right

Now I'm somewhere in Wyoming callin' from a payphone

Just to tell you that I missin' you tonight


I've got one life on the road and one with you at home

And it feels like one too many when I'm gone

But I need one to make a livin' and one to make it all worthwhile

So, I'll watch the miles slip away so I can finally call it a day


And I know someday this endless road I'm on is gonna end

And when it does I'll hold you close and never leave your side again


I've got one life on the road and one with you at home

And it feels like one too many when I'm gone

But I need one to make a livin' and one to make it all worthwhile

So, I'll watch the miles slip away so I can finally call it a day

So, I'll watch the miles slip away so I can finally call it a day
