six days on the road

well

i pulled outta pittsburgh

a rollin' down that eastern sea board

i got my diesel wound up

and she's a runnin' like a never before. there's a speed zone ahead alright

and 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 open wide. well

i just passed a jimmy in white

i been 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 that sort of the 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. well

the icc

is checkin' on down the line

well

i'm a little overweight

and my log book's way behind. but nothin' bothers me tonight

i could 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 my stack

and that smoke's a blowin' like it's cold. 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.
