Mechanised Swaggie Lyrics - Artist : Slim Dusty
I'm a mechanised swaggie in a Kenworth T950
I haul big freight across the paddock to Perth Me and my girl share the wheel and the berth We can make it in forty-eight hours, from Sydney I used to like hearing my dad tell of the depression Looking for work and getting knocked back Shouldered his swag and took to the track Remembers each camp and every good cook on the stations The times have changed old timer The years have passed you by Some things never alter at all Let me tell you why The dusty roads you tramped are now all highways The road camp now, a sleeper camp The billy of tea, a quick coffee we grabbed I live on the road, I'm the mechanised swaggie of this day Let's go now Yeah, things have changed old timer And yet they're still the same The swaggies old tradition lives on In the trucking game 'Cause I'm a mechanised swaggie in a Kenworth T950 Checking the gauges and the axel weights Listening to the sound of the Jacobs brake We live on the road, we're the mechanised swaggies of this day, hey I'm a mechanised swaggie in a Kenworth T950 I haul big freight across the paddock to Perth Me and my girl share the wheel and the berth We live on the road, we're the mechanised swaggies of this day, hey |
