Kilometres Are Still Miles To Me |
Kilometres are still miles to me |
They separate from home and family |
Now I can’t count the white posts, |
They’re not where they used to be, |
Kilometres are still miles to me |
Oh, it used to be five hundred |
From Melbourne to Sydney Town, |
Now it seems longer |
Every time the run comes 'round. |
But I just keep a churning on |
Just to stand on my two feet |
But I’m weighed down in metrics, |
Yes kilometres are still miles to me |
They separate from home and family |
Now I can’t count the white posts, |
They’re not where they used to be, |
Kilometres are still miles to me |
The familiar sign are gone |
And I’m wondering why. |
I know the dog is still |
Five miles from Gundagai. |
Pumping litres more than gallons |
Into this old rig |
And my seven ounce at the end of the day |
Is two hundred mils too big |
Yes kilometres are still miles to me |
They separate from home and family |
Now I can’t count the white posts, |
They’re not where they used to be, |
Kilometres are still miles to me |
