Eighteen Wheels And A Dozen Roses Lyrics - Singles - Kathy Matea

Charlie's got a gold watch, don't seem like a whole lot 

After thirty years of drivin' up and down the interstate 

But Charlie's had a good life and Charlie's got a good wife 

And after tonight she'll no longer be countin' the days 

Eighteen wheels and a dozen roses 

Ten more miles on his four day run 

A few more songs from the all night radio 

Then he'll spend the rest of his life with the one that he loves 

They'll buy a Winnebago, set out to find America 

They'll do a lot of catchin' up a little at a time 

With pieces of the old dream they're gonna light the old flame 

Doin' what they please, leavin' every other reason behind 

Eighteen wheels and a dozen roses 

Ten more miles on his four day run 

A few more songs from the all night radio 

Then he'll spend the rest of his life with the one that he loves
