I'm the king of the road,
drinking diesel black coffee
Tonight these big wheels roll on to
my windows letting the rains in
Smoke and steam dances on the hood
Dash light and sunshine will
keep this old boy straight
Till these big wheels come
On and on, like the beating of the drum
Well, I've been bending hearts out in
the entertainment's getting grown
Out on these highways, dark an d lonely
still we call them preacher
From those nicotine -stained
fingers to his broken teeth
Lord had given me something
Can't see my family, send them my love
I'll be on the road, singing my save
At end of these big wheels,
like the beating of a drum
I've been ending hearts out in
the entertainment's getting drunk
I don't miss highways dark and lonely
On and on, like the beatin' of a drum
Well, I've been bendin' hearts out in
the entertainment's getting drunk
Out on these highways dark an d lonely
Out on these highways dark and lonely
Out on the highway dark an
