Six Days on the Road

Pulled out of Pittsburgh

Rolling down the eastern seaboard

My Diesel's all warmed up

And running like never before

There's a speed limit ahead

And I don't see a cop in sight

Six days on the road

And I'm gonna see my baby tonight

I got ten forward gears

And a Georgia overdrive

I'm taking little white pills

And my eyes are open wide

I just passed a Jimmy in white

I've been passing everything in sight

Six days on the road

And I'm gonna see my baby tonight

ICC is checking on down the line

I'm a little overweight

And my log is way behind

But nothing bothers me tonight

I can dodge all the scales all right

Six days on the road

And I'm gonna see my baby tonight

My rig's a little old

But that don't mean she's slow

There's a flame in the stack

And the smoke is black as coal

My home town's coming in sight

If you think I'm happy you're right

Six days on the road

And I'm gonna see my baby tonight

ICC is checking on down the line

I'm a little overweight

And my log is way behind

But nothing bothers me tonight

I can dodge all the scales all right

Six days on the road

And I'm gonna see my baby tonight

My rig's a little old

But that don't mean she's slow

There's a flame in the stack

And the smoke is black as coal

My home town's coming in sight

If you think I'm happy you're right

Six days on the road

And I'm gonna see my baby tonight

Six days on the road

And I'm gonna see my baby tonight
