Lyrics:
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-a 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 logbook's 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
