Slim Dusty - Boomaroo Flyer lyrics

I run a large truck mister And I live in Echuca and every Friday night I have to run it down to Melbourne I start out in Numurkah, I make Shepparton by the fadin' light I get another load at Seymour, then I'm hittin' Kalkallo? I'm in Cambellfield about midnight And on the side of my truck it says Boomaroo Flyer When you ride in this truck You don't ride any higher And everyone along the road Know's the Boomaroo Flyer When I'm on my run I get a lot of time for thinking Like where's this truck taking me to I think of rollin' on this road when I'm run down an' old And all the other things I wanna do But when I see that big candle from my cabin window I can smile cause I'm heading home to you And on the side of my truck it says Boomaroo Flyer When you ride in this truck You don't ride any higher And everyone along the road Know's the Boomaroo Flyer, (hey) Instrumental I was out one night It was late on a Sunday And a young man steps out and flags me down He was all of fourteen His father had been drinkin, he was hell bent On gettin' outta town By the time he cooled off We'd put some miles behind us But eventually we turned that truck around And on the side of my truck it says Boomaroo Flyer When you ride in this truck You don't ride any higher And everyone along the road Know's the Boomaroo Flyer Yes the Boomaroo Flyer
