Well, I pulled out of Pittsburgh rollin' down that eastern seaboard I've got my diesel wound up and she's runnin' like never before There's a speed zone ahead, all right I don't see a cop in sight Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight I've 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 on a white I've been passin' 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 lot of women but I'm not like some of the guys I could have one to hold me tight But I could never make believe it's all right Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight Well, the ICC is checkin' on down the line I'm a little overweight and my log book's way behind But nothin' bothers midnight I can dodge all the scales, all right Six days on the road and I'm 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 comin' in sight If you think I'm a-happy, you're right Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight
