D
Well it must- a been 'round

The first sight of dawn creepin'
over the horizon,

Fifteen minutes from a Billinugel breakfast,
I was rolling down highway one.
A
Verse 2
D
And ya know what it's like
Up around the Northern rivers

Those windin' roads just

And to top it all up there's been
a few points of rain.
D
Verse 3
Well I've been stuck in low gear for
what seems like forever
G
Climbin' up a steep hill with
my diesel a- runnin'
D
But the big ol' white was a fuel delight,
A
And the best rig doin' the rounds,
Verse 4
D
But you know what it's like when
you're tired an' you're hungry,

Everything that you do,
well you do it in a hurry,

I'd just let her roll down.

Verse 5
D
good long stretch
of downhill runnin',
G
An' as far as I could see,
there was nobody comin',
D
So I let her have her head
a little bit longer,
An' she took off like a melly bull.
A
Verse 6
D
Then my mind on a meal an'
my hands on the wheel,
G
Then my eyes started seeing
things that couldn't be real,
D
A
And the roadside posts started turnin'
D
into six foot logs,
(You know what time it is then mate.)
A
E
Time for a stop.
Verse 7
E
Well, I went for the brakes like
a drunk for the bottle,
A
But my foot missed the mark an'
it landed on the throttle,
E
And the diesel roared an'
I prayed to the Lord
To the Lord "Won't you
B
gi'me a break."
E
Oh, I guess he wasn't listen'
or he just didn't care,
A
Or maybe he was taken
forty winks up there
E
B
Cause soon I was riding a
22 wheel roller skate,
E
Verse 8
Then the wheels left the road
as far as I can remember,
A
I was roaring thru the bush like
a shearer on a bender,
E
When the door opened up
and who should get in?
But a big red kangaroo
B
Verse 9
E
He said, "G'day mate,
what the hell ya think you're doin?
A
Give us the wheel there,
I'll get ya thru it."
E
Then he crashed thru the gears an'
B
E
we missed another big ole dump,
Oh yeah!
Verse 10
E
Well a round- a- bout here it kinda
gets in a muddle,
A
Though I seem to recall giving a koala
E
a cuddle an' a possum on the lap,
An' a white cockatoo screamin',
"Give her a go, ya mug."
B
Verse 11
E
Then when I awoke it was no damn joke,
A
I was alone in the cab except for
E
blokes of Billinugel,
B
Starin' in the window and sayin',
E
"Are you alright mate?"
B
I said, "Fellas give us a big
mug of black coffee,
B
A Billinugel special
burger with the works,
Because u know fellas,
B
ya never gonna believe this."
Verse 12
E
Well it must- a been 'round
4.30 in the mornin,
A
The first sight of dawn creepin'
E
over the horizon,
Fifteen minutes from a
Billinugel breakfast,
I was rollin' down highway one.
B
Verse 13
E
And ya know what it's like
Up around the Northern rivers
A
Those windin' roads just
give me the shivers,
E
And to top it all up there's
been a few points of rain.
