Six Days On The Road Lyrics - Dave Dudley

Well I pulled outta Pittsburgh a rollin' down that Eastern Seaboard 

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 my ten forward gears and a Georgia overdrive 

I'm takin' little white pills and my eyes are open wide 

I just passed a Jimmy and a White I been a 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 a some other guys 

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 

[ guitar ] 

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 her stack and that smoke's a blowin' black as 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
