Gram Parsons Six Days On The Road
Well I pulled out of Pittsburgh rolling down the Eastern seaboard
Got my diesel wound up & she's arunning like never before
There's a speed trap ahead alright but
I don't see a cop in sight
Six days on the road & I'm gonna make it home tonight
I got ten forward gears and a George Overdrive
I'm takin' little white pills and my eyes are seeing opened wide, yes they do
I just passed a Jimmy and 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 bye bye
I could have a lotta women but I'm not like 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
The FBI is checkin on down the line
Well I'm a little overweight but my log books way behind
But nothing bothers me tonight
I'm gonna dodge all the scales allright
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight
My rigs a little old but that don't mean she's slow
I've got a flame from her stack and a smoke 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
