Hoyt Axton Lyrics
"Gotta Keep Rollin'"

(Mae Boren Axton - John T. Axton)

I was just a stranger passin' through your town
Somethin' 'bout you baby made me want
It made me want, made me want to settle down
I gotta keep rollin', rollin', rollin', gotta keep rollin'.

Gotta keep rollin' night and day, day and night.
My daddy was a trucker, my son's trucker's son
Love that rig I'm drivin' and the high
I said the high, Lord, the highway that I'm on.

I gotta keep rollin' night and day, day and night.
My daddy was a trucker, my son's trucker's son
Love that rig I'm drivin' and the high
I said the high, Lord, the highway that I'm on.

I like your kind of lovin'
I'd like to hang around
Sun came up this morning
And led me from your town.

I gotta keep rollin' night and day, day and night.
My daddy was a trucker, my son's trucker's son
Love that rig I'm drivin' and the high
I said the high, Lord, the highway that I'm on.

--- Instrumental ---

I like that quiet country
Can't stand the city strife
Guess that I'll keep rolling
Rolling all my life.

I gotta keep rollin' night and day, day and night.
My daddy was a trucker, my son's trucker's son
Love that rig I'm drivin' and the high
I said the high, Lord, the highway that I'm on.

My daddy was a trucker, my son's trucker's son
Love that rig I'm drivin' and the high
I said the high, Lord, the highway that I'm on...
