 Well  I pulled out of Pittsburgh rolling  down that Eastern seaboard
 I  got my diesel wound up & she's arunning like never before
 There's  a speed zone ahead  on the right and
 I  don't see a cop in  sight
 Six  days on the road & I'm  gonna make it home  tonight
 I  got ten forward gears and a George  Overdrive
 I'm  takin' little white pills & my eyes are opened wide
 I  just passed a Jimmy and White
 I  been passing everything  in sight
 Six  days on the road & I'm  gonna make it home  tonight
 The  ICC is checkin  on down the line
 Well  I'm a little overweight but my law books way behind
 But  nothing bothers me  tonight
 I'm  gonna dodge all the scales  allright
 Six  days on the road & I'm  gonna make it home tonight
 Well  it beens six weels since I kissed  my baby goodbye
 I  could have a lotta women but I'm not alike some other guys
 I  could find me one to hold  me tight
 But  I could never make believe  it's allright
 Six  days on the road & I'm  gonna make it home tonight
 My  rigs a little old but that don't  mean she's slow
 There's a good flame blowing from her smoke stack
 black  as coal
 Well  my home town's comming  in sight
 And  if you think I'm happy  you're right
 Six  days on the road & I'm  gonna make it home tonight
