Dead On Time (完全准时) (Remaster) - Slim Dusty (西林·得斯提)[00:00:00]

He'd done this run for a long time now[00:00:09]

And he don't know why and[00:00:11]

He don't know how[00:00:13]

But he'd never been late so[00:00:14]

They called him 'Dead on Time' [00:00:15]

He painted the name on the bonnet in black [00:00:19]

And the station kids on the mailman's track[00:00:21]

Would all look out for the[00:00:24]

Dust of 'Dead On Time'[00:00:26]

Would all look out for[00:00:29]

The dust of 'Dead On Time'[00:00:31]

I gotta be back for the kid's birthday [00:00:37]

The mailman said as he waved hooray[00:00:40]

And wheeled his truck on the long[00:00:43]

Haul homeward bound [00:00:45]

The wife's gonna make him a chocolate cake[00:00:48]

They made me promise that I won't be late [00:00:50]

I'll see you again when I come next time around [00:00:53]

I'll see you again when I come next time around [00:00:58]

But 'Dead On Time' ran outta luck[00:01:30]

And he couldn't believe when his good old truck[00:01:33]

Ground to a halt with a burnt out bearing whine [00:01:35]

Not a tree in sight and the water bag low [00:01:40]

Not a hope in hell of getting her to go [00:01:43]

Didn't look too good at all for 'Dead On Time' [00:01:45]

Didn't look too good at all for 'Dead On Time' [00:01:50]

A birthday party and a chocolate cake [00:01:58]

Went dancin' across the dry salt lake [00:02:01]

Where the mirage met[00:02:04]

With the distant timber line [00:02:05]

And the silent truck threw a meagre shade [00:02:09]

Over the plea for help that he made [00:02:11]

Scratched in the dirt on[00:02:14]

The road by "Dead On Time' [00:02:15]

He'd done this run for a long time now[00:02:22]

And he don't know why[00:02:24]

And he don't know how[00:02:26]

But he'd never been late[00:02:27]

So they called him 'Dead on Time'[00:02:28]

He painted the name on the bonnet in black [00:02:32]

And the station kids on the mailman's track[00:02:35]

Still look out for the dust of "Dead On Time' [00:02:37]

Yeah[00:02:42]
