[VERSE 1]
Ano[C]ther day is dawning[Am] out on the lonely[C] plains, [Am]
[C]Here am I a'drovin'[Am] on the big beef tra[G]in. [G]
[C]Drivers there before me, [Am]some behind[C] me, too, [Am]
[C]Just like me I know th[Am]ey've got the road train blues. [G] [G7] [C] [C]
[CHORUS]
You dri[C]ve all night and listen to th[C]e engine groan, [C] [C]
With lots[F] of time to think abo[F]ut the folks back home, [F] [F]
I've al[C]ways been a wanderer, [Am]had these ramb[C]lin' shoes, [Am]
[C]Guess that I was born to kn[Am]ow the road train blues. [G] [G7] [C] [C]
[VERSE 2]
I’d b[C]etter stop and get out, a[Am] careful che[C]ck to make, [Am]
I [C]hope there's nothing going or abou[Am]t to break. [G] [G]
No ti[C]me to boil a billie, [Am]got no[C] time to lose, [Am]
[C]Gotta keep a rollin'[Am] with my road train bl[G]ues. [G7] [C] [C]
[CHORUS]

[VERSE 3]
I'l[C]l bet in every wag[Am]on, there[C]'s a beast that's down, [Am]
You've got [C]to get him on his feet [Am]and turned around. [G] [G]
You sw[C]eat and curse and struggle, get kn[Am]ocked about and bru[C]ised, [Am]
Your tem[C]per's getting shorter with [Am]the road train blues. [G] [G7] [C] [C]

[VERSE 4]
Your eye[C]s are nearly blinded by t[Am]he red bu[C]lldust, [Am]
I [C]hope there's nothing going or abou[Am]t to bust. [G] [G]
[C]Tourist buses passing[Am] , on a plea[C]sure cruise, [Am]
They wav[C]e and seem to mock your rollin[Am]' road train blues. [G] [G7] [C] [C]
