E A B E
Hey little guy, I can't believe you answered the phone
C#m A E
I guess I didn't know you could do that, God help me, have I been gone that long
E A B E
I'm in a truck stop somewhere on the Arkansas line
C#m A E
They got all the big trucks here, boy, you ought to hear the big diesels whine
B E
No little guy, your daddy won't be home for a while
C#m A B
It's gonna be another couple weeks and another couple thousand miles
E A E
So go to sleep little rock 'n' roller
A E
Your daddy's up there knockin' 'em dead tonight
B A
One of these days when you're a little older
F# B E
You can ride the big bus and everything will be alright
E A E
Until that day you got your mama to hold you
A E
Don't be afraid when she turns out the light
A E
Cause I know there's an angel just for rock 'n' rollers
B E
Watchin' over you and your daddy tonight
E A B E
No little guy, don't bother your mamma right now
C#m A E
I only got a minute and I called to talk to you anyhow
E A B E
I know you miss me, God knows I'm thinkin' 'bout you
C#m A E
I got your picture in my wallet, it cheers me up sometimes when I'm blue
B E
Well little guy, I'm gonna have to let you go
C#m A B
You know it's way past your bedtime, and they're tellin' me we got to roll
Chorus
