Give Me The Road (1996 Digital Remaster) - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)[00:00:00]
The lights of town I will leave behind[00:00:07]
With a tug on the klaxon chain[00:00:11]
Give me a mack and a decent load[00:00:15]
And turn me loose on the Darwin road[00:00:18]
Let me roll those wheels again[00:00:22]
Just give me a long straight stretch of tar[00:00:25]
And give me a load of freight[00:00:29]
With a manifest all sealed and stamped[00:00:33]
For some place south where I've often camped[00:00:36]
Then clear me through this gate[00:00:40]
Then clear me through this gate[00:00:44]
Give me a mack and I'll 'cross that line[00:00:55]
Where the Murray waters flow[00:00:59]
Give me two or three days and I'll be back[00:01:02]
To the heat and dust of the top end track[00:01:06]
Way out where the road trains go[00:01:10]
This bulldog mascot beckons me[00:01:14]
And I can't ignore his call[00:01:17]
So give me a long straight stretch of tar[00:01:21]
Hey watch out there mate in your shiny car[00:01:25]
For the fastest rig of them all[00:01:28]
For the fastest rig of them all[00:01:32]
Let me wind her up let me hear that song[00:01:44]
That a high speed diesel makes[00:01:47]
Check that chain while I stow my gear[00:01:51]
And write my book while I toss some air[00:01:55]
To release those trailer brakes[00:01:58]
So open the gates of this line haul yard[00:02:02]
When you hear those airbrakes sigh[00:02:06]
Guide me into the left hand lane[00:02:10]
Tell that office girl I'll be gone again[00:02:13]
And Melbourne town goodbye[00:02:17]
And Melbourne town goodbye[00:02:20]
Watch me steer for the western sun[00:02:32]
And aim for the end of the tar[00:02:35]
Where the black soil starts and the bull dust flys[00:02:39]
Give me country roads and give me country skies[00:02:42]
I'll be better off by far[00:02:46]
I'll be better off by far[00:02:49]
