Well I pulled out of Pittsburgh rollin' down that Eastern seaboard I got my diesel wound up and she's a running like never before There's a speed zone ahead that's all right I don't see a cop in sight Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight I got me ten forward gears and a George Overdrive I'm taking little white pills and my eyes are opened wide I just passed a Jimmy and a White I been passing 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 alike some other guys I could find 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 I.C.C. is a checking on down the line Well I'm a little overweight and my log book's 'way behind But nothing bothers me tonight I can dodge all the scales all right Six days on the road and 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 and That smokes been a blowing black as coal My home town's coming in sight If you think I'm 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
