Miles away, far from home
This old diesel keeps moving on
Highway signs and red taillights
Is all I have with me tonight
This tired heart and lonely wheels
No one knows the way I feelDesert wind, carry me
I would fly if I had wings
I'm stuck behind the wheel
Down this long hard road
Miles away
Far from homeAnd it rained through most of Montana
All the way down to Colorado
I got a little sleep in Santa Fe
But in sight there's stormy weather
It's been so long since we've been together
I'm missin' you more and more each day
Won't be long, I'm almost there
I'll fill 'er up and say a prayerDesert wind, carry me
I would fly if I had wings
I'm stuck behind the wheel
I'm rollin' down this long hard road
Miles away
Far from homeMiles away, far from home
This old diesel keeps moving on
