Slim Dusty - Highway One (Remastered 1996)

i gotta itchin' shoes and a dose of the blues this
morning
a simple story too beer and fun
i won't feel so bad when i'm back in the cab an' i'm
movin'
headin' out on the highway number one

when i left my mates i was feelin' great i remember
we were full of noise and ready for the run
i didn't think i had too much drink so it shows ya
oh it must be the sleep that brings a man undone

heading interstate with a load of freight at sunrise
no maps to read i got all i need in my roadmap eyes
oh let the diesels roar but don't slam the doors when
you're leavin'
as i find my way on the highway number one

hey

i put a cartridge in, it starts to spin and it's
playin'
something about a sad hangover song
oh my head's so sore from the night before that i'm
sayin'
oh diesel won't you take me gently home

headin' interstate with a load of freight at sunrise
no maps to read i got all i need, here in my roadmap
eyes
oh let the diesels roar but don't slam the doors when
you're leavin'
as i find my way on the highway number one
