Give Me Room - Slim Dusty
Got this big ol' rig in overdrive an' we're making time
Smoke flowing from the stack an' trailing out behind
Got a load of station cattle for a sale away down south
Lazy wind beside me so I need to wind her out
Give me room give me room
We've been up to northern queens land and back to tennant creek
Done a run to borroloola we've been rolling for a week
Got a stirry bunch of scrubbers they're a restless heavy load
Got a deadline at the sale yards so we need a lot of road
Give me room give me room
If you see this big rig coming you can bet she's blowing black
Oh there's thunder in her diesel an' there's lightning in her stack
Left a newy like it's standing and a ken worth in our wake
Caught a Gimmie through the risers and I hit her on the straight
Give me room give me room
Look out now
If you think that you hear thunder hey you'd better move aside
There's a monster in your mirror with her trailer tracking wide
Got a hundred tons behind us an' we're rolling down the track
Five hundred horse beneath me and it's coupled to a Mack
Give me room give me room
Got this big ol' rig in overdrive an' we're making time
Smoke flowing from the stacks an' trailing out behind
Got a load of station cattle for a sale away down south
Lazy wind beside me so I need to wind her out
Give me room give me room
Give me room give me room
