Well I pulled outta Pittsburgh A rollin' down that Eastern Seaboard I got my diesel wound up And she's a runnin' like a never before There's a speed zone ahead, well alright I don't see a cop in sight Six days on the road And I'm a gonna make it home tonight
I got me ten forward gears And a Georgia overdrive I'm takin' little white pills And my eyes are open wide I just passed a Jimmy and a White I been a passin' everything in sight Six days on the road And I'm a gonna make it home tonight
Well it seems like a month Since I kissed my baby goodbye I could have a lotta women But I'm not like a some other guys 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 a gonna make it home tonight
ICC is a checkin' on down the line Well I'm a little overweight And my log book's a way behind But nothin' bothers me tonight I can dodge all the scales alright Six days on the road And I'm a 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 smoke's a blowin' black as coal My hometown's a comin' in sight If you think I'm a happy you're right Six days on the road And I'm a gonna make it home tonight Six days on the road And I'm a gonna make it home tonight Six days on the road And I'm a gonna make it home tonight
