Big wheel don’t you roll Big diesel don’t you whine Through the night as I’m running down the road Big semi don’t you stop ’cause if you do I’m not Gonna make it back to Baltimore with my load Well the truckstop’s warm and friendly And the coffee keeps me up And the waitress there would like to waste my time But I’ll have to pass it by As it’s down the road I fly Just a-racing with that pocket watch of mine Big wheel don’t you roll Big diesel don’t you whine Through the night as I’m running down the road Big semi don’t you stop ’cause if you do I’m not Gonna make it back to Baltimore with my load Smoke A-puffing tires A-humming Burning up the road Counting road signs and the miles to Baltimore One eye out for weighing stations One for radar traps They can’t stop me ’cause my plans don’t call for that And a-big wheel don’t you roll Big diesel don’t you whine Through the night as I’m running down the road Big semi don’t you stop ’cause if you do I’m not Gonna make it back to Baltimore with my load
