Mechanised Swaggie - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)[00:00:00]
I'm a mechanised swaggie in a Kenworth T950[00:00:18]
I haul big freight across the paddock to Perth[00:00:24]
Me an' my girl share the wheel and the berth[00:00:27]
We can make it in 48 hours from Sydney [00:00:30]
I used to like hearing my[00:00:36]
Dad tell of the depression[00:00:37]
Lookin' for work and getting' knocked back[00:00:42]
Shouldered his swag and took to the track[00:00:45]
Remembers each camp and[00:00:47]
Every good cook on the stations[00:00:49]
The times have changed old timer[00:00:53]
The years have passed you by[00:00:56]
Some things never alter at all [00:00:59]
Let me tell you why[00:01:03]
The dusty roads you tramped are now all highways[00:01:07]
The road camp now a sleeper camp[00:01:13]
The billy of tea a quick coffee we drank [00:01:15]
I live on the road [00:01:18]
I'm the mechanised swaggie of this day[00:01:20]
(let's go now)[00:01:23]
Yeah things have changed old timer[00:01:41]
And yet they're still the same[00:01:45]
The swaggies old tradition lives on[00:01:48]
In the truckin' game[00:01:51]
Cause I'm a mechanised swaggie[00:01:55]
In a Kenworth T950[00:01:56]
Checkin' the gauges and the axel weights[00:02:01]
Listening to the sound of the Jacob's brake[00:02:04]
We live on the road we're the mechanised[00:02:07]
Swaggies of this day[00:02:09]
Hey [00:02:11]
I'm a mechanised swaggie in a Kenworth T950[00:02:12]
I haul big freight across the paddock to Perth[00:02:18]
Me an' my girl share the wheel and the berth[00:02:21]
We live on the road we're the mechanised[00:02:24]
Swaggies of this day[00:02:26]
Hey [00:02:29]
And put the Jacob's brake on now[00:03:00]
