Sugar lady, be my saviour,
´Cause I´m tired, I´ve been eight days on the road.
That´s right, eight days on the road,
Travelin´ through the night,
There ain´t no town, ain´t no town, ain´t no rest tonight.

Broke and busted, standin´ on the county line,
I´ve been traveling eight days on the road.
That´s right, well, eight days on the road.
Travelin´ through the night,
There ain´t no town, ain´t no town, ain´t no rest tonight, oh.

I´m out here thinkin´, thinkin´ ´bout what I´ve done,
That´s why, oh that´s why, I´m eight days on the road.
That´s right, well eight days on the road.
Travelin´ through the night,
I´m comin´ home, I won´t be long, I´ll make Birmingham tonight.

Oh sugar lady, be my saviour,
´Cause I´m broke, busted, I´ve been eight days on the road.
Hitchhike, I´ve been eight days on the road.
Travelin´ through the night...
There ain´t no town, there ain´t no town, there ain´t no rest tonight.

Comin´ home, and I won´t be long (Eight days on the road)
Sugar lady don´t you do me no wrong (Eight days on the road)
Ridin´ on the highway and I´m outta luck (Eight days on the road)
Mmmmm - ooh ooh

I´m makin´ it back to you,
Makin´ it back to you,
Makin´ it back to you,
Makin´ it back to you,
Eight days on the road,
Eight days on the road.

Eight days, well, whoo!
