Intro: (D) (D) (D) (C) (D) (D) (F) (G) (G) (D) (D) (F) (G)

This (D) eighteen-wheeler rolling heavy through the desert tonightse
I've been (G) driving all day but I won't shut her down to(D)night
I (G) just pulled out of Santa Fe  
I'm gonna (D) make it home by the break of day
Cause the midnight hauler is (A) cannonballing her (D) home

I got my load strapped down and my Peter Built is wound up tight
I got my saddle full of diesel and my belly full of coffee and whites
I've been talking on the radio 
Keeping track of old Smoky Joe
Cause the midnight hauler is cannonballing her home

I got a little woman waiting back in old KC
Lord that sweet good woman don't love nobody but old RB
I just called her on the telephone 
I said tomorrow night you won't sleep alone
Cause the midnight hauler is cannonballing her home

  The (G) highway is deserted it's a Saturday night
  (D) Ain't nobody but the moon and the trucks in sight
  (G) Streaking across the desert like a lightning flash
  I'm (A) going home baby got to get there fast (Bb) (A)
