Well, it's Wednesday evening,
mama's waiting by the phone.
Bm 
It rains, but it's not his voice.
G 
It seems the highway patrol
has found a jackknife rig
D 
in a snowbank in Illinois
But the driver was missing
and the search had been abandoned
Cause the weather had
Bm 
everything stalled
G 
And they had checked all the houses
and the local motels
When they had some more
D 
news they called
G 
And she told him when they
D 
Em 
found him to tell him
A 
That she loved him
And she hung up the phone

Singing roll on highway

Mama and the children will
F#m 
be waiting up all night
G 
Thinking nothing but the
worst was coming
D 
With the ringing of the telephone
Bm 
But the man upstairs was listening
G 
When Mama asked him to
bring Daddy home
Em 
When the call came in
it was Daddy on the other end
A 
Asking her if she had been
singing the song
D 
G 
Singing roll on highway, roll on along

Roll on, daddy, till you get back home.
