Wank Hilliams's video: Six Days On The Road Dave Dudley - Sawyer Brown Cover w Epiphone Dove Pro BT

(c)1963 Written by Earl Green & Carl Montgomery Track 4 on Sawyer Brown´s album "Six Days On The Road" (1997) Arr. stagwolf [To be HEARD real LOUD!! ~~~~~~~~ Well, I pulled out of Pittsburgh rolling down the eastern seaboard I've got my diesel wound up and she's running like a never before There's a speed zone ahead but all right, I don't see a cop in sight Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight. I got ten forward gears and a Georgia overdrive I'm passing little white lines and my eyes are open wide Just passed a Jimmy and a White, I've 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 goodbye I could have a lot of women but I'm not like some of the guys I could find one to hold me tight, but I could not make believe it's right Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight. [Solo break Well the ICC is checking on down the line I'm a little overweight and my log books are all way behind But nothing bothers me tonight, I can dodge all the scales all right 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 There's a flame from her stack and the smoke's blowing black as coal My home town's coming in sight, if you think I'm happy you're right Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight.. [repeat 2 times to fade ~~~ Many cover versions of "Six Days on the Road" have been recorded, with three of them also being chart hits for other artists. Johnny Rivers took a cover to No. 58 on the country charts and No. 105 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1974. Steve Earle recorded the song for the 1987 movie Planes, Trains and Automobiles, and his version reached No. 29 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart in early 1988. Others who have recorded "Six Days" include Del Reeves, George Jones, Red Simpson, Nev Nicholls, Ferlin Husky, Boxcar Willie, Wolfman Jack, Motorpsycho, Red Sovine, Jim Croce, George Thorogood, the Flying Burrito Brothers, who are shown performing the song live in the movie, "Gimme Shelter", as well as Gram Parsons and the Fallen Angels, aka The Turkeys, blues guitarist Popa Chubby (for his 2008 album Vicious Country), New Riders of the Purple Sage and Tom Petty's band Mudcrutch. According to Dahl, one of the best versions was a blues-rocking rendition recorded in 1969 by Taj Mahal. Even a French version was made by Claude François : Six jours sûr la route. The Youngbloods covered it during a 1971 concert in San Francisco. David Allan Coe covered it and it appears on his 1994 compilation "20 Greatest Hits". String Cheese Incident has covered it at least three times, most notably, at the Electric Forest Festival in Rothbury, MI featuring Jason Carter, Rob McCoury and Ronnie McCoury of The Travelin' McCoury's and the Del McCoury Band. Chris Coole did a great Clawhammer version on his 2009 album "Old Dog". [wiki
