She was waitin' tables in a diner off of Highway 41 On his way to Indiana on another midnight run So they talked about the weather and the next thing that you know The hours flew by like minutes and it was time he had to go On a rainy highway half way out of town A voice inside his heart said turn those 18 wheels around And go back You've got somebody waitin' Go back That's where you need to be Right now There's nothing in this world more important than that So go back They settled down in a little house in the spring of '92 And she quit her job at the diner with the baby almost due Those early years weren't easy and they had bills to pay So he said you know I hate to leave you but I'll be back by Saturday 10 miles out of Tulsa his boss came on his radio Said if you want to see your brand new daughter you better drop that load And go back You've got somebody waitin' Go back That's where you need to be Right now There's nothing in this world more important than that So go back Everybody heard the sirens They pulled his rig out of the snow In a rush to see his family somehow he lost control Though the doctors tried to save him, he slipped into the light Then he heard the angels whisper, now is not your time Go back You've got somebody waitin' Go back That's where you need to be Right now There's nothing in this world more important than that So go back (You've got somebody waitin') Go back (That's where you need to be) Go back (Go back) Go back
