Six Days On The Road - Dave Dudley Lyrics - Classic Country

Well, I pulled out of Pittsburgh, 

Rollin' down the Eastern Seaboard. 

I've got my diesel wound up, 

And she's running like never before. 

There's a speed zone ahead, all right, 

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 Georgia overdrive. 

I'm taking little white pills, 

And my eyes are open wide. 

I just passed a 'Jimmy' and a 'White': 

I've been passin' everything in sight. 

Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight. 

Well, it seems like a month, 

Since I kissed my baby good-bye. 

I could have a lot of women, 

But I'm not like some other guys. 

I could find one to hold me tight, 

But I could never believe that it's right. 

Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight. 

I.C.C. is checking on down the line. 

I'm a little overweight and my log's three days behind. 

But nothing bothers me tonight. 

I can dodge all the scales all right, 

Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight.
