Lyric Six Days on the Road

(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...
