Well I pulled out of Pittsburgh a rollin' down that Eastern Sea board I got my diesel wound up and she's runnin' like a never before There's a speed zone ahead 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 ten forward gears and George overdrive Taking little white pills and my eyes are open wide I just passed a Jimmy in white I been passin' everything in sight Six days on the road and I'm a gonna make it home tonight
Well that ICC is checkin' on down the line Well I'm a little overweight and my log book's way behind But nothin' bothers me tonight I could dodge all the scales alright 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 lotta women but I'm not like some other guys I could find one to hold me tight I could never make believe it's alright Six days on the road and I'm a gonna make it home tonight
Oh my rig's a little old but that don't mean she's slow There's a flame from my stack and she's a blowin' 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
