Slim Dusty - Dogs, Dust And Diesel Lyrics

Send "Dogs, Dust And Diesel" ringtone to your cell

Dogs and dust and diesel have been my mates for years

We've thumped the corrugations and moved a million gears

Seen a heap of country and met some decent folk

Departed and farewelled them with a wave of diesel smoke

We've lumbered heavy haulage and run some lively loads

Through spinifex and sandhills where the bends are pigeon toed

Hey been pulled up by the coppers with me that's common mate

Always breakin some infringement now they call me overweight

Hey dogs and dust and diesel coupled up with oil and grease

Have bound me to the cabin with a lifetime verbal lease

The song of this old diesel ridin home without a stop

Rides easy like the dog and gates all piggy backed on top

I've been bogged out in the donger pulled down by suction mud

Where swampland bred mosquitoes drained a billy can of blood

Worn out a post hole shovel then put my mouth in gear

Pulled it back to neutral just in case the lord should hear

Guitar solo

I boil up by the roadway as daylight slowly dims

And watch the bulldust pyramids tricklin from the rims

Check the dog and diesel air hose and coupling rings

There's a blowout on the bogey and the dog has broken springs

All through the outback country we find his rendezvous

A diesel patch a ring of oil and a sardine tin or two

Pull tops from the stubbies and a few more tell tale clues

Where loads and rolls of topics and general daily news

Guitar solo

Yeah a truckies compensation is a freeway wide and black

The milepegs fly much faster than those a way outback

I'll get dry cleaned and polished have a major service done

Throughout the truck returnin to the dog and diesel run

Hey dogs and dust and diesel have been my mates for years

We've thumped the corrugations and moved a million gears

Seen a heap of country and met some decent folk

Departed and farewelled them with a wave of diesel smoke
