Six Days on the Road Lyrics

Well I pulled out of 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 on that headwind all right!
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 George Overdrive
I'm takin' little white pills and my eyes are opened wide
I just passed a Jimmy and a White
I've been a-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 lotta women but I'm not alike some other guys
I could find me 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

I.C.C. is a-checkin on down the line
Well I'm a little overweight and my log books are 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 rigs a little old but that don't mean she's slow
There's a flame from her stack and that smokes up blowin' black as coal
My home town's a-coming in sight
And if you think I'm a-happy you're right
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight
