Well I pulled out of Pittsburgh rollin down that Eastern seaboard

Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight 
 
I got me ten forward gears & a George Overdrive 
I'm takin' little white pills and my eyes are opened wide 
I just passed a Jimmy in white, I been passing everything in sight 
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight 
 
Guitar Solo 
 
Steel solo 
 
The I.C.C. is a-checkin on down the line 
Hey, hey I'm a little overweight and my log books are way behind 
But nothing bothers me tonight, cause I can dodge all the scales all right 
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight 
 
Well it seems like a month since I kissed my baby goodbye 
Yeah, I could have a lotta women but I ain?t like some other guys 
I could find me one to hold me tight but I could never make believe it's all right 
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight 
 
Fiddle solo 
 
Well my rigs a little old but that don't mean she's slow 
There's a flame from her stack & that smokes a blowin' 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 and I'm gonna make it home tonight
