Well I pulled out of Pittsburgh, a-rollin' down that Eastern Seaboard I got my diesel wound up and she's a-runnin' like a-never before There's a speed zone ahead, but all right 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 in a white I 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 a-like a-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 a-gonna make it home tonight ICC is a checking on down the line Well I'm a little overweight and my log book'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 There's a flame from her stack and that smoke's a-blowing black as coal My hometown's a-comin' in sight 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
