Foggy Mirrors (1992 Digital Remaster) - Slim Dusty[00:00:00]
Daylight breaks I check both mirrors[00:00:06]
Rub my eyes and light a smoke [00:00:08]
Then a few miles further on I find a place[00:00:11]
Where the blokes all take on breakfast[00:00:16]
Tighten wheels and check their loads[00:00:18]
Before we start the last leg of this race[00:00:21]
Yes this race to beat the traffic[00:00:26]
And this race to beat the scales[00:00:28]
And this race to get unloaded early too[00:00:31]
Seems our industry's gone crazy[00:00:36]
Time is all some care about[00:00:39]
What I'd give for those old truckin' days we knew[00:00:42]
And as my boggies hug the[00:00:46]
White lines while the miles are flyin' by[00:00:48]
Both my mirrors show me pictures of the past[00:00:52]
An' in between the split shift[00:00:57]
Changes to myself I swear about[00:00:58]
That this trip with wool from Winton is my last[00:01:02]
Goin' home headin' home[00:01:07]
In both mirrors clearly dear one[00:01:17]
I can see your honest face[00:01:20]
And our children's cheery eyed at your side[00:01:23]
Through the fog streaked mirrors clearly[00:01:27]
Do I see your sunny smile[00:01:30]
That's my love known since[00:01:33]
You were first my bride[00:01:35]
Though my eyes are laced with roadmaps[00:01:38]
And so many years have gone[00:01:40]
Every detail of your features I can see[00:01:43]
And these mirrors bring me mem'ries[00:01:48]
Of the laughter of our kids[00:01:50]
As you drove them to some depot to meet me[00:01:53]
And as my boggies hug the white lines[00:01:58]
While the miles are flyin' by[00:02:01]
Both my mirrors show me pictures of the past[00:02:03]
An' in between the split shift[00:02:08]
Changes to myself I swear about[00:02:10]
That this trip with wool from Winton is my last[00:02:13]
Goin' home headin' home[00:02:19]
And I've asked myself a thousand times[00:02:29]
When I've been on the track[00:02:32]
Just why you've stuck to[00:02:34]
Me through all these years[00:02:36]
As I watched my mirrors blurred by[00:02:39]
Fog I cannot clearly see[00:02:42]
My tyres is it fog or is it tears[00:02:44]
And as my boggies hug the white line[00:02:49]
While the miles are flying by[00:02:52]
These old mirrors told the story of the past[00:02:54]
And in between the split shift[00:02:59]
Changes to myself I've made this vow[00:03:01]
That this trip with wool from Winton is my last[00:03:04]
Goin' home headin' home at last[00:03:10]
