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[00:00:28]
We can make it in 48 hours from Sydney [00:00:30]
I used to like hearing my dad tell of the depression[00:00:36]
Looking for work and getting knocked back[00:00:42]
Shouldered his swag and took to the track[00:00:45]
Remembers each camp and every good cook on the stations[00:00:48]
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[00:01:02]
The dusty roads you tramped are now all highways[00:01:07]
The road camp now a sleeper cab[00:01:13]
The billy of tea a quick coffee we grab [00:01:15]
I live on the road I'm the mechanised swaggie of this day[00:01:18]
(let's go now)[00:01:23]
Yeah things have changed old timer[00:01:42]
And yet they're still the same[00:01:45]
The swaggies old tradition lives on[00:01:47]
In the trucking game[00:01:50]
Cause I'm a mechanised swaggie in a Kenworth T950[00:01:55]
Checking 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 swaggies of this day[00:02:07]
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 [00:02:24]
We're the mechanised swaggies of this day[00:02:25]
Hey[00:02:29]
