Well I pulled outta Pittsburgh a rollin` down that Eastern Seaboard
I got my diesel wound up and she`s a 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 my ten forward gears and a Georgia overdrive
I`m takin` little white pills and my eyes are open wide
I just passed a Jimmy and a White I been a passin` everything in sight
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 a some other 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 a gonna make it home tonight

ICC is a checkin` on down the line
Well I`m a little overweight and my log book`s way behind
But nothin` bothers me tonight I can dodge all the scales alright
Six days on the road and I`m a 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 that smoke`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
Six days on the road and I`m a gonna make it home tonight
Six days on the road and I`m a gonna make it home tonight
