Six Days On The Road

INTRO - Well, I pulled out of Pittsburgh rolling down that Eastern seaboard. I got my diesel wound up and she's a running like never before. There's a speed zone ahead but 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 taking little white pills and my eyes are open 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 a-gonna make it home tonight. Well, it seems like a month since I kissed my baby goodbye, I could have a lot of women, but I'm not like 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 gonna make it home tonight. INSTRUMENTAL I.C.C. is a-checking on down the line. Well, I'm a little overweight and my log books way behind. But nothing 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 blowin' black as coal. My hometown's coming in sight, if you think I'm 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. Yeah, six days on the road, and I'm a-gonna make it home tonight.
