Lyrics:

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
