Alabama – Roll On (Eighteen Wheeler)

You got itRoll on highway, roll on alongRoll on, Daddy, “til you get back homeRoll on family, roll on crewRoll on, Mama, like I asked you to doAnd roll on, eighteen-wheeler, roll on
Well, it’s Monday morningHe’s kissin’ Mama goodbyeHe’s up and gone with the sunDaddy drives an eighteen-wheelerAnd he’s off on a Midwest run (you got it)
And three sad faces gather ’round MamaThey ask her when Daddy’s comin’ homeDaddy drives an eighteen-wheelerAnd they sure miss him when he’s gone (yeah, they do)
Ah, but he calls them every nightAnd he tells them that he loves themHe taught ’em this song to sing
Roll on highway, roll on alongRoll on, Daddy, ’til you get back homeRoll on family, roll on crewRoll on, Mama, like I asked you to doAnd roll on, eighteen-wheeler, roll on (roll on)
Well, it’s Wednesday eveningMama’s waitin’ by the phoneIt rings, but it’s not his voiceSeems the highway patrol has found a jackknifed rigIn a snow bank in Illinois (that’s right)
But the driver was missin’And the search had been abandonedFor the weather had everything stalledAnd they had checked all the houses and the local motelsWhen they had some more news they’d call (that’s right)
And she told them when they found him to tell himThat she loved himAnd she hung up the phone singin’
Roll on highway, roll on alongRoll on, Daddy, ’til you get back homeRoll on family, roll on crewRoll on, Mama, like I asked you to doAnd roll on, eighteen-wheeler, roll on
Mama and the children will be waiting up all night longThinkin’ nothing but the words just comin’With the ringin’ of the telephoneOh, but the Man Upstairs was listeningWhen Mama asked Him to bring Daddy home
And when the call came inIt was Daddy on the other endAskin’ her if she had been singin’ the song, singin’
Roll on highway, roll on alongRoll on, Daddy, ’til you get back homeRoll on family, roll on crewRoll on, Mama, like I asked you to doAnd roll on eighteen-wheeler
Roll on highway, roll on alongRoll on, Daddy, ’til you get back homeRoll on family, roll on crewRoll on, Mama, like I asked you to doAnd roll on, eighteen-wheeler, roll on (roll on)

5 Tips for Singing Karaoke

Here are some other things to keep in mind about how to have a successful karaoke night:

Warm up your voice before singing so you can really hit those high notes! Follow along with this quick video on vocal warm ups for singers.
Look confident. Start with a smile and with your feet planted shoulder width apart. Make no apologies for being on that stage!
Pick a song you really know so you’re not always having to look at the lyrics on the screen. Don’t forget you have an audience that wants you to sing to them!
Use good vocal technique. Breathe low, and keep your sound placed in your mask rather than shouting into the microphone.
Practice at home! YouTube has many excellent channels, such as KaraFun, that can help you practice.
