Long Distance Driving

Well I’ve gotta make it into Sydney markets tonight
I’ve gotta be unloaded at Flemington before daylight
The Kennys' polished up and my log books' filled into go
Why on earth I took on long distance drivin', mate I’ll never know
I pushed her into 1st gear let the clutch out and then I’m away
The way the clutch is shuddering she’s four tonne over I’d say
I hate to think what will happen when we get to Marulan weighbridge
If they make me unload I’ll be late and that’s ridgy didge
Hey
Well I’ve gotta make it into Sydney markets tonight
I gotta be unloaded at Flemington before daylight
My The Kennys' polished up and my log books' filled into go
Why on earth I took on long distance drivin', mate I’ll never know hey
I got my ears on but I’m sittin' on the side I don’t want to chat
I only use it emergency to ask where the blue lights are at
If I don’t blow a tyre I’ll be there in plenty of time
If I don’t go crazy starin' at this long white line, hey
Cause I’ve gotta make it into Sydney markets tonight
I’ve gotta be unloaded at Flemington before daylight
My The Kennys' polished up and my log books' filled into go
Oh why on earth I took on long distance drivin', mate I’ll never know
That’s right
That bloke in the kombi, is drivin' me right round the bend
I’ll tailgate awhile he might let me around in the end
If he keeps slowin' up it’s certain I’ll do my block
If that happens mate he’ll be in for one hell of a shock, yeah
Well I’ve gotta make it into Sydney markets tonight
I’ve gotta be unloaded at Flemington before daylight
Hey the Kennys' polished up and my log books' filled into go
Why on earth I took on long distance drivin', mate I’ll never know
Why on earth I took on long distance drivin', mate I’ll never know
Hey!
