Well I pulled outta Pittsburgh a rollin` down that Eastern Sea board
I got my diesel wound up and she`s a runnin` like a never before
There`s a speed zone ahead alright and I don`t see a cop in sight
Six days on the road and I`m a gonna make it home tonight
I got me ten forward gears and a George overdrive
I`m takin` little white pills and my eyes are open wide
Well I just passed a Jimmy in white I been 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 that sort of the 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

Well the ICC is checkin` on down the line
Well I`m a little overweight and my log book`s way behind
But nothin` bothers me tonight I could 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 my stack and that smoke`s a blowin` like it`s cold
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
