Flying Burrito Brothers

Six Days On The Road

Well I pulled outa Pittsburgh

rollin down that eastern sea board

I got my diesel wond up and she's

a runnin like never before

There's a speed trap alright

But I don't see a cop in sight

Six days on the road and i'm gonna

make it home tonight

I got 10 forward gears and a Georgia overdrive

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

I just passed a jimmy in 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 year since I kissed

my baby goodbye

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 make believe its all right

Six Days on the road and I'm gonna

make it home tonight

You know the ICC is a checkin

on down the line

I'm a little over weight

and my log book's way behind

but nothin bothers me tonight

I can dodge all them scales alright

Six Days on the road and I'm gonna

make it home tonight

This rig's a little old but that

don't mean she's slow

I got a flame from the stack

and that smoke's rollin black as coal

my hometown's comin in sight

if you think I'm happy your right

Six Days on the road and i'm gonna

make it home tonight

Six Days on the road and i'm gonna

make it home tonight
