Six Days on the Road — текст песни (Ferlin Husky)

(Earl Green - Carl Montgomery)

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 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 my George overdrive
I`m takin` 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 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 a guy
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 my stack and that smoke`s some blowin` like it`s 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...
