Six Days On The Road
Recorded by: Dave Dudley
Written by: Earl Green & Carl Montgomery
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 me 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' ever'thing 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 a-like a-some of the 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
I.C.C. is a-checkin'
On down the line
Well, I'm a little overweight
And my log book's a-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 smokes' a-blowin' black as coal
My home town's a-comin' in sight
If you think I'm 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 to-night-ight
