(C.W. McCall, Bill Fries, Chip Davis)
It`s 4 A.M., and I`m a hundred miles from breakfast in Wyomin`
I`m not complainin`
I got the radio on, playin` on a station from New Orleans
An` now it`s rainin`
I`m makin` time, tryin` ta keep it rollin`
And I`m all alone
[Chorus]
Windshield wipers in the rain
I hear that country-western music comin` at me, through the thunder
A flash of lightnin`
I hear the D.J., sayin` "Here`s a little tune for all you truckers.
"I hope you like it."
I`m gettin` tired; my eyes are feelin` sandy
When I`m alone
[Chorus]
Windshield wipers in the rain
I hear a freight train comin` down
I see the headlights flashin` `round
I feel an earthquake in the ground
An` then he`s gone
An` I`m alone
All alone
[Chorus]
Windshield wipers in the rain
I feel a cold Wyomin` chill comin` on me in the mornin`
I need some welcome
I see a sign, says it`s only fifty miles to where I`m going
And I hope it`s open
I look around, wishin` you was with me
But I`m alone
[Chorus]
Windshield wipers in the rain
I see a distant neon sign
I turn the music way up high
I wipe the lonesome from my eyes
But I`m alone
[Chorus]
Windshield wipers in the rain
