Well I pulled out of Pittsburgh rollin down that Eastern seaboard  
         A                                                E   
I got my diesel wound up and she's a-running like never before  
        D                        E           A                  D    
There's speed zone ahead but all right and I don't see a cop in sight  
    A                        E                    A  
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight  
  
I got me ten forward gears & a Georgia Overdrive  
I'm takin' little white pills and my eyes are opened wide  
I just passed a Jimmy and a 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
