Fred Eaglesmith - 18 Wheels Lyrics




Driving rain
Forty miles out of Michigan
Spiderweb headlights
Shut me down

I knocked on the door
I rang the bell
The sign said vacancy
There was no-one around

Eighteen wheels up against the wall
Fifty-six tons, grain alcohol
Danger pay, I'm trying to be strong
But my will is gone
My will is gone
My will is gone

Lightning flashing
Standing in a phone booth
I called her number
I got a machine

I heard her voice
I heard the tone
I tried to speak
I couldn't say anything

Eighteen wheels up against the wall
Fifty-six tons, grain alcohol
Danger pay, I'm trying to be strong
But my will is gone
My will is gone
My will is gone

Blinding snow
Sioux City Iowa
It dawned on me
She was gone to stay

I jammed the brakes
I swung it around
Now I'm headin' back
But it's way too late

Eighteen wheels up against the wall
Fifty-six tons, grain alcohol
Danger pay, I'm trying to be strong
But my will is gone
My will is gone
My will is gone
