Six Days On the Road

Well, I pulled out of Pittsburgh rolling down that Eastern seaboard
I got my diesel wound up, and she's a running like never before
There's a speed zone ahead, but alright
I don't see a cop in sight
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight

I got me ten forward gears and a Georgia overdrive
Taking little white pills and my eyes are opened wide
I just passed a Jimmy and White
Man, I'm passing everything in sight
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight

Well, it seems like a month since I kissed my baby goodbye
I could have a lot of women, but I'm not alike some other guys
Well, I could find one to hold me tight
But I could never make believe it's alright
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight

ICC is a-checking on down the line
Well, I'm a little overweight and my log book's way behind
But nothing bothers me tonight
I can dodge all the scales alright
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight

Well, my rig's a little old but that don't mean she's slow
There's a flame from her stack and that smokes is rollin' black as coal
My hometown is coming in sight
If you think I'm happy, you're right
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight

Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight
