paroles de chanson Six Days On The Road - Live 1987 - Steve Earle

Well we're back
I'm glad you all stayed, tuned into us, uh
I've had a blast tonight
And one of the reasons I've had such a good time, uh
As soon as I found out I was gonna do this
I called Steve Earle and asked if he'll be a guest
And he said he would
And he's a great guy

Right now he's gonna sing his next single
One of the songs he's featured in, playing strings
In automobiles with John Candy and Steven Martins
"Six days on the road"
Do it Stevo!

I pulled out of Pittsburgh rolling down the Eastern seaboard
I've got my diesel wound up and she's running like never before
There's a speed zone ahead on right and I ain't see a cop all night
Six days on the road and now I'm gonna make it home tonight

I got a ten forward gears and a Georgia overdrive
I take little white pills and my eyes are open wide
I just passed a "Gimmy" and a "White"
I've been smokin' everything in sight
Six days on the road and now I'm gonna make it home tonight

Well it seems like a month since I kissed my baby goodbye
And I can have a lot of women but I'm not like some other guys
I can find one to hold me tight
But I could never make believe it's alright
Six days on the road and now I'm gonna make it home tonight

Now the ICC's been a-checkin' on down the line
I'm a little overweight and my log book's way behind
Nothing bothers me tonight
I can dodge all them scales all right
Six days on the road and now I'm gonna make it home tonight

Well my rig's a little low, but that don't mean she's slow
Got the stacks blowin' fire and the smoke's blowing black as coal
My hometown's coming in sight
If you think I'm happy, you're right
Six days on the road and now I'm gonna make it home tonight

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

(The dudes)
C'mon over here Steve
Folks, I have had a blast tonight
Ralph Emry
Thanks for letting me do this man, uh
I hope you go skin more often brother
'Cause I have had a black
I'd like to thank Steve Earle and his band, the dudes
I'd like to thank Mr. Faran Nuer (thank you, Steven, I love you all)
Also, Rossen Smith over here
