He's been gone for ten long days 
Burnin' up that interstate 
He's got a run from coast to coast 
I've got one more night to go 
 
I love a man with 18 wheels 
Seventy feet of polished steel 
Baby makes his livin' on the road 
Well he just called from Baton Rouge 
One more stop and he'll be through 
Then he's mine until it's time to roll 
Well his home away from home 
Is in the house that Peter built 
Oh I love a man with 18 wheels 
I love a man with 18 wheels 
 
I can't wait to hear that sound 
Of that big diesel gearin' down 
We're gonna act like lovesick kids 
We're gonna make up for the nights we've missed 
 
I love a man with 18 wheels

Well his home away from home 
Is in the house that Peter built 
Oh I love a man with 18 wheels
