Dave Dudley Six Days On The Road Lyrics

Six Days On The Road Lyrics

Well I pulled out of Pittsburgh rollin' down that Eastern seaboard 

 I got my diesel wound up and she's arunning like never before 

 There's a there'sa speed zone  ahead  allright 

 I don't see a cop in sight 

 Six days on the road and I'm 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 passing 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 goodbye 

 I could have a lotta women but I'm not alike some other guys 

 I could find me one to hold me tight 

 But I could never make believe it's allright 

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

  

 I.C.C. is a checkin on down the line 

 Well I'm a little overweight but the log book's way behind 

 But nothing bothers me tonight 

 I can dodge all the scales allright 

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

  

 Well my rigs a little old but that don't mean she's slow 

 There's a flame from her stack and that smokes  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
