| Been on the road for fourteen days, | |
| Got six more left to go. | |
| The rain is pounding down on my hood, | |
| I got a heavy load in tow. | |
| You been so cruel to your lover boy, | |
| Had to get up, get away. | |
| Don't need your lovin', don't want no babies, | |
| I've had my thrills for the day. | |
| Desperation roll me, | |
| I'm rollin' over to you. | |
| Desperation roll me, | |
| I'm gettin' closer to you. | |
| Been on the road for fourteen days, | |
| And I ain't got a shirt to show. | |
| The heat is pounding down on my back, | |
| What a heavy load | |
| I tow. Desperation roll me, | |
| I'm rollin' over to you. | |
| Desperation roll me, | |
| I'm gettin' closer to you. | |
| Desperation roll me, | |
| I'm rollin' over to you. | |
| Desperation roll me, | |
| I'm gettin' closer to you. | |
| Hey, hey, hey, all right. |
