[Verse]
Well, I pulled out of Pittsburgh rollin down the Eastern Seaboard
I ve got my diesel wound up and she s running like never before.
There s a speed zone ahead, all right, but, 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 a Georgia overdrive
I m taking little white pills and my eyes are open wide
I just passed a Gimmy and a White , I ve 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 good-bye
I could have a lot of women but not like some other guys
I could find one to hold me tight, but I could never believe that it s right
Six days on the road and I m gonna make it home tonight
Well, the I.C.C. is checking on down the line
I m a little overweight and my log s three days behind
But nothing bothers me tonight, I can dodge all the scales all right
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 her stack and the smoke s rolling black as coal
My hometown s coming in sight, if you think I m happy your right
Six days on the road and I m gonna make it home tonight
