Six days on the road

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Well I pulled out of Pittsburgh

Rollin' down the Eastern seaboard

I got my diesel wound up

And she's a-runnin' like never before

There's a speed zone ahead alright

But I don't see a cop in sight

Six days on the road

And I'm gonna make it home tonight

I got ten forward gears

And a George Overdrive

I'm takin' little white pills

And my eyes are opened wide

I just passed a Jimmy and White

I been passin' everythin' in sight

Six days on the road

And I'm gonna make it home tonight

SOLO

Well it seems like a month since

I kissed my baby goodbye

I could have a lotta women

But I'm not like some other guys

I could find me one to hold me tight

But I could never make believe it's alright

Six days on the road

And I'm gonna make it home tonight

The FBI is checkin' on down the line

Well I'm a little overweight

But my log books way behind

But nothin' bothers me tonight

I'm gonna dodge all the scales alright

Six days on the road

And I'm gonna make it home tonight

SOLO

My rigs a little old but

That don't mean she's slow

There's a good flame blowin'

From her smoke stack, black as coal

Well my home town's commin' in sight

And if you think I'm happy, you're right

Six days on the road

And I'm gonna make it home tonight
