Well I pulled outta Pittsburgh a rolling down that Eastern Sea board
I got my diesel wound up and she's a running 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 taking little pink pills and my eyes are open wide
I just passed a Jimmy in white I been passing everything in sight
Six days on the road and I'm a gonna make it home tonight
[ guitar - piano ]
Now 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 some blowin' like it's cold
My hometown's a coming 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
