Well I pulled out of Pittsburgh rollin' down the Eastern seaboard
A                                                   E
Got my diesel wound up and she's a runnin' like never before
          D                E
There's a speed trap ahead alright
      A                  D
But 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  ten forward gears and a Georgia Overdrive
A                                                  E
I'm takin' little white pills and my eyes are open wide
D                        E
I just passed a Jimmy and a White
       A                     D

Well it seems like a year since I kissed my baby goodbye
A                                                       E
I could have a lotta women but I'm not like some of the guys
        D                   E
I could find one to hold me tight
            A                         D
But I could never make believe it's alright
    A                        E                    A

You know the ICC is a-checkin' on down the line
A                                               E
I'm a little overweight and my log book's way behind
D                        E
But nothin' bothers me tonight
      A                       D

I've got a flame from the stack and the smoke's blowin' black as coal
