[Verse 1] Eighteen wheels on the blacktop hum, Haulin' forty tons, ain't no small sum. A job to do, just gettin' through, But Lord, it feels like herdin' fools. [Chorus] Eyes on the road, hands on the wheel, You don’t know the weight I feel. Eighty thousand pounds can crush your life, But I’m the one who pays the price. Eyes on the road, don’t make me your regret. [Verse 2] A glowin' screen in a careless hand, Swervin' lanes like it’s all planned. You text, you scroll, you laugh, you post, But I’m the one who’s haunted most. [Prechorus] I’m just a trucker, tryin’ to get by, Not your guardian angel on this midnight ride. [Chorus] Eyes on the road, hands on the wheel, You don’t know the weight I feel. Eighty thousand pounds can crush your life, But I’m the one who pays the price. Eyes on the road, don’t make me your regret. [Bridge] You think you’re quick, just a glance or two, But I see the wrecks you’ll never undo. Families torn, lives cut in half, All for a picture, a moment, a laugh.
