One Truckie's Epitaph (Live) - Slim Dusty[00:00:00]
Dad drove a rig on the northcoast run[00:00:25]
We'd go along for a ride me and mum[00:00:28]
But most of the time we were home just awaitn' for dad[00:00:31]
He'd pull in the yard make the engine roar[00:00:37]
Blast the horn as he slammed the door[00:00:40]
And we'd hear that old country music turned up loud[00:00:43]
When he first heard the song about lights on the hill[00:00:49]
He played it non stop and he loved it still[00:00:53]
He told me it happens on the highway all of the time[00:00:56]
He said if ever I run into the old SD[00:01:02]
I'm gunna tell him a few things that's happened to me[00:01:05]
Cause there might be song in this old life of mine[00:01:08]
So I thought I'd drop a line to tell your dad[00:01:14]
About all the tapes and records he had[00:01:18]
Cause he won't be around anymore to meet the old SD[00:01:21]
When they pulled him from the wreck by the river side[00:01:27]
Lights on the hill was playin' when he died[00:01:30]
That song was the one that he heard the last[00:01:33]
You would never believe it could happen to you[00:01:39]
But thats the one time it really came true[00:01:43]
And lights on the hill[00:01:46]
Was one truckies epitaph[00:01:47]
So I thought I'd drop a line to tell your dad[00:02:17]
About all the tapes and records he had[00:02:20]
Cause he won't be around anymore to meet the old SD[00:02:23]
When they pulled him from the wreck by the river side[00:02:29]
Lights on the hill was playin' when he died[00:02:32]
That song was the one that he heard the last[00:02:35]
You would never believe it could happen to you[00:02:42]
But thats the one time it really came true[00:02:45]
And lights on the hill[00:02:48]
Was one truckies epitaph[00:02:49]
Yes and lights on the hill[00:02:54]
Was one truckies epitaph[00:02:55]
