Well I pulled out of Pittsburgh rolling down the Eastern seaboard

Got my diesel wound up & she's arunning like never before

There's a speed trap ahead alright but

I don't see a cop in sight

Six days on the road & I'm gonna make it home tonight

I got ten forward gears and a George Overdrive

I'm takin' little white pills and my eyes are seeing opened wide, yes they do

I just passed a Jimmy and 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 bye bye

I could have a lotta women but I'm not like some other guys

I could find me one to hold me tight

But I could never make believe it's allright

Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight

The FBI is checkin on down the line

Well I'm a little overweight but my log books way behind

But nothing bothers me tonight

I'm gonna dodge all the scales allright

Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight

My rigs a little old but that don't mean she's slow

I've got a flame from her stack and a smoke black as coal

Well my home town's comming in sight

And if you think I'm happy you're right

Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight
