Road Train Blues

   C                  Am                C                   Am
Another day is dawning out on the lonely plains,
C                  Am                  G           G
Here am I a'drovin' on the big beef train.
C                        Am         C                          Am
Drivers there before me, some behind me, too,
C                     Am                               G      G7  C            C
Just like me I know they've got the road train blues.

       C                            C                  C           C
You drive all night and listen to the engine groan,
         F                    F                        F                F
With lots of time to think about the folks back home,
       C                     Am            C                              Am
I've always been a wanderer, had these ramblin' shoes,
C                          Am                        G      G7   C         C
Guess that I was born to know the road train blues.

     C                        Am          C                         Am
I’d better stop and get out, a careful check to make,
  C                                 Am           G          G
I hope there's nothing going or about to break.
     C                    Am    C                     Am
No time to boil a billie, got no time to lose,
C                   Am                    G     G7    C          C
Gotta keep a rollin' with my road train blues.

       C                            C                  C           C
You drive all night and listen to the engine groan,
         F                    F                        F                F
With lots of time to think about the folks back home,

I'll bet in every wagon, there's a beast that's down,
           C                      Am                    G           G
You've got to get him on his feet and turned around.
      C                                 Am                 C                              Am
You sweat and curse and struggle, get knocked about and bruised,
        C                          Am                      G      G7   C        C
Your temper's getting shorter with the road train blues.

       C                            C                  C           C

Your eyes are nearly blinded by the red bulldust,
  C                                 Am          G          G
I hope there's nothing going or about to bust.
C                    Am         C                    Am
Tourist buses passing, on a pleasure cruise,
        C                             Am                       G     G7    C          C
They wave and seem to mock your rollin' road train blues.
