Well woman don't you put no bets on me that I might settle down Cause I'm just not the settlin' kind I gotta chase around Well I'm a truck drivin' daddy and I keep on a goin' And it's just about time that I'm gone Cause black smoke blowin' over eighteen wheels well honey that's my home Black smoke blowin' over eighteen wheels is the only home I've ever known Black smoke a blowin' over eighteen wheels well honey that's my home [ guitar - steel ] Well I'd like to love you but I can't so I won't so what's the use to try It wouldn't be long till my love was gone and I don't want to make you cry So let's just kiss and say goodbye then I'll be gone Cause black smoke blowin' over eighteen wheels well honey that's my home Black smoke blowin' over... Black smoke a blowin' over eighteen wheels well that's home sweet home
