Well I pulled outta Pittsburgh a rollin' down that Eastern Seaboard   I got my diesel wound up and she's runnin' like she 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 gonna make it home tonight      I got ten forward gears and the George overdrive   I'm 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 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 that some of them guys   I could find one to hold me tight but I could never make believe it's alright   Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight   [ guitar ]   Well the ICC is a checkin' on down the line   I'm a little overweight and my log's three days behind   But nothin' bothers me tonight I could dodge all the scales alright   Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight      Well my rig's a little old but that surely don't means she's slow   There's a flame from my stack and the smoke's a rollin' black as coal   My hometown's a comin' in sight if you think I'm happy you're right   Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight
