Don't let me down, that steady old Chevy has seen me happy and seen me sad;

Yeah, friends may come and friends may go, but that Chevy don't let me down.

I've been drivin' all night, my hand's wet on the wheel;
There's a voice in my head that drives my heel.
It's my baby callin', says I need you here;
And it's a half past four and I'm shiftin' gear.
Six Days on the Road

I got my diesel wound up and she's a-runnin' like a-never before;
There's a speed zone ahead, well, all right, I don't see a cop in sight;
Six days on the road and I'm a-gonna make it home tonight.
