Well, I pulled out of Pittsburgh
Headin' down the eastern seaboard
I got my diesel wound up
And she's runnin' like never before
And there's a speed zone ahead, all right
But 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
In the Georgia overdrive
I'm a-drinkin' black coffee
And my eyes are open wide
I just passed a Jimmy and a White
I've 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 can find a lot of women
But I'm not a-likin' some of the guys
I got me ten forward gears
I can find one to hold me tight
But I can never make believe it's all right
Six days on the road
And I'm a-gonna make it home tonight
Well, the ICC is a-checkin' on down the line
I'm a little overweight
And my logbook's way behind
But nothin' bothers me
Tonight
I can dodge all the scales all right
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
Now, there's a flame from the stack
And that smoke's blowin' black as coal
Well, my hometown's comin' in sight
And 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
Six days on the road
And I'm a-gonna make it home tonight
