Charlie's got a gold watch

Don't seem like a whole lot

After thirty years of drivin'

Up and down the interstate

But Charlie's had a good life

And Charlie's got a good wife

And after tonight she'll no longer

be countin' the days





CHORUS



Eighteen wheels and a dozen roses

Ten more miles on his four day run

A few more songs on the all night radio

And he'll spend the rest if his life

with the one that he loves





They'll buy a Winnebago

Set out to find America

Do a lotta catchin' up

A little at a time



With pieces of the old dream

They're gonna light the old flame

Doin' what they please

Leavin every other reason behind



(Repeat CHORUS)



(Instrumental)



(Repeat CHORUS)
