Текст песни
I light up a cigarette take a sip of strong black tea
A little tired but the night is coming on soon
Like this i roll across the wide white world
Rolling for so many years without a sentence or a tomb
Long ago i chose this road for myself
A hard road but i have to tell you true
It is a shame that someday one way or another
I will have to park this rig forever just like you
Just three more days and i will be home to you
By our standards darling that is not long at all
You will hug me tight again my sweet love
And you will cry those happy tears right there at our door
Steppes and swamps villages and cities flashing by
The same old view outside the window day after day
Your photo is right here in the cab with me
It keeps me safe from every kind of trouble on the way
A familiar trucker flashes his lights as he passes
But this time we just wave and keep on rolling by
He is like me racing home at full throttle
Flying to meet the ones he loves under the same sky
Just three more days and i will be home to you
By our standards darling that is not long at all
You will hug me tight again my sweet love
And you will cry those happy tears right there at our door
I will pat my iron horse once more and give him a little pep talk
Before we hit the road again you and me old friend
You will be holding it down back home my darling
Raising the kids alone with that worry that never ends
But do not worry babe i am not going off to war
This is just my usual life the one i know so well
And the main thing my love you know i love only you
I will come back to you darling just like i always do
Just three more days and i will be home to you
By our standards darling that is not long at all
You will hug me tight again my sweet love
And you will cry those happy tears right there at our door
You will cry those happy tears right there at our door
