Little Rock 'n' Roller

[Verse 1] Hey little guy, I can't believe you answered the phone I guess I didn't know you could do that, Lord help me, have I been gone that long? Now I'm in a truck stop somewhere on the Arkansas line They got all the big trucks here, boy, you ought to hear the big diesels whine No little guy, your daddy won't be home for a while It's going to be another couple weeks and another couple thousand miles [Chorus] So go to sleep, little rock 'n roller Your daddy's up there knocking 'em dead tonight One of these days when you're a little older You can ride the big bus and everything will be all right Till that day you got your mama to hold you Don't be afraid when she turns out the lights 'Cause I know there's an angel just for rock 'n rollers Watching over you and your daddy tonight [Pedal Steel Guitar Solo] [Verse 2] No little guy, don't bother your mama right now I only got a minute and I called to talk to you anyhow I know you miss me, God knows I'm thinking 'bout you I got your picture in my wallet, it cheers me up sometimes when I'm blue Well little guy, I'm gonna have to let you go You know it's way past your bedtime and they're telling me we got to roll [Chorus] And so go to sleep, little rock 'n roller Your daddy's up there knocking 'em dead tonight One of these days when you're a little older You can ride the big bus and everything will be all right Till that day you got your mama to hold you Don't be afraid when she turns out the lights 'Cause I know there's an angel just for rock 'n rollers Watching after you and your daddy tonight [Outro] I know there's an angel just for rock 'n rollers Just watching over you and your daddy tonight Go to sleep, little rock 'n roller Go to sleep, little rock 'n roller Go to sleep, little rock 'n roller Go to sleep, little rock 'n roller
