One Truckie's Epitaph - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)[00:00:00]
Dad drove a rig on the northcoast run[00:00:07]
We'd go along for a ride me and mum[00:00:10]
But most of the time we be home just awaitng for dad[00:00:13]
He'd pull in the yard make the engine roar[00:00:20]
Blast the horn as he slammed the door[00:00:23]
And we'd hear that old country music turned up loud[00:00:26]
When he first heard the song about lights on the hill[00:00:33]
He played it non stop and he loved it still[00:00:36]
He told me it happens on the highway all of the time[00:00:40]
He said if ever I run into the old SD[00:00:46]
I'm gonna tell him a few things[00:00:50]
That's happened to me[00:00:51]
Cause there might be song in this old life of mine[00:00:53]
So I thought I'd drop a line[00:01:00]
To tell your dad[00:01:01]
About all the tapes and records he had[00:01:03]
Cause he won't be around anymore[00:01:07]
To meet the old SD[00:01:09]
When they pulled him from the wreck[00:01:13]
By the river side[00:01:15]
Lights on the hill was playing when he died[00:01:17]
That song was the one that he heard the last[00:01:20]
You never believe it could happen to you[00:01:27]
But that's the one time it really came true[00:01:30]
And lights on the hill[00:01:33]
Was one truckies epitaph[00:01:36]
So I thought I'd drop a line[00:02:08]
To tell your dad[00:02:09]
About all the tapes and records he had[00:02:11]
Cause he won't be around anymore[00:02:15]
To meet the old SD[00:02:17]
When they pulled him from the wreck[00:02:21]
By the river side[00:02:23]
Lights on the hill was playing when he died[00:02:25]
That song was the one that he heard the last[00:02:28]
You never believe it could happen to you[00:02:35]
But that's the one time it really came true[00:02:38]
And lights on the hill[00:02:42]
Was one truckies epitaph[00:02:44]
Yes and lights on the hill[00:02:49]
Was one truckies epitaph[00:02:50]
