Well, I pulled out of Pittsburgh
A rolling down that eastern seaboard
I got my diesel wound up
She's a going like 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 me ten forward gears
And a Georgia overdrive
I'm taking little white pills
And my eyes're open wide
I just passed a Jimmy in white
Well, I been passing everything in sight
Six days on the road
And I'm gonna make it home tonight
It seems like a month
Since I kissed my baby goodbye
I could have a lotta women
But I'm not like some of the guys
I could find one to hold me tight
I can never make believe it's alright
Six days on the road
And I'm gonna make it home tonight
Well, the ICC 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 alright
Six days on the road
And I'm 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 my stack
And the smoke's blowing black as coal
Well, my hometown's a 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
