E  A   E   A
[Verse]
EHey little guy, I Acan't believe you Banswered the Ephone
I guess I didn't C#mknow you could do that, God Ahelp me, have I been gone that Elong
EI'm in a truck stop Asomewhere on the BArkansas Eline
They got all the C#mbig trucks here, boy, you Aought to hear the big diesels Ewhine
BNo little guy, your daddy won't be home for a Ewhile
It's gonna be C#manother couple weeks and Aanother couple thousand Bmiles
[Chorus]
So Ego to sleep little Arock 'n' Eroller
Your Adaddy's up there knockin' 'em Edead tonight
BOne of these days when Ayou're a little older
F#You can ride the big bus and Beverything will be alEright
EUntil that day you got your Amama to Ehold you
ADon't be afraid when she Eturns out the light
Cause AI know there's an angel just for Erock 'n' rollers
BWatchin' over you and your Edaddy tonight
[Verse]
ENo little guy, don't Abother your Bmamma right Enow
I C#monly got a minute and I Acalled to talk to you anyEhow
EI know you miss me, AGod knows I'm Bthinkin' 'bout Eyou
I got your C#mpicture in my wallet, it Acheers me up sometimes when I'm Eblue
BWell little guy, I'm gonna have to let you Ego
You know it's C#mway past your bedtime, and they're Atellin' me we got to Broll
