Well I pulled out of Pittsburgh heading down that Eastern seaboard I got my diesel wide out & she's a running like never before There's a street, gonna make it alright I don't see a cop in sight Six days on the road & I'm gonna make it home tonight I got me ten forward gears & a George Overdrive I'm takin' little white pills & my eyes are opened wide I just passed a Jimmy & a White I been passing everything in sight Six days on the road & 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 all right Six days on the road & I'm gonna make it home tonight I.C.C. is a check in on down the line Well I'm a little overweight but the law looks way behind But nothing bothers me tonight I can dodge all the scales all right Six days on the road & 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 & that smokes been a blowin' black as coal Well my home town's coming in sight And if you think I'm happy you're right Six days on the road & I'm gonna make it home tonight Six days on the road & I'm gonna make it home tonight Six days on the road & I'm gonna make it home tonight
