Willie and Me
by Dougie  

  On the Road Again
  in my old Hylux
  up the bruce highway
  just enjoying my luck
 a busted old tape deck
  Willie grinding away
  hit after hit endless play


  Good Hearted Woman
  my lover my wife
  keeping our home an'
  shaping our life
  keeping things right
  sometimes the stick
  but love is the trick

  Blue Eyes Crying
  a small dalliance
  without even trying
  both took a stance
  before realising
  our place our love
  and all the above

  Working Man Blue
  worries and workers
  good men and true
  bastard customers
  the complainers
  and the good day
  that paves my way

  Blue Skies
  the Queensland way
  a ute that never dies
  the open highway
  the roadhouse stay
  mile after mile
   people who smile

  Willie takes us along
  dreams come true
  a lonely cowboy song
  pretty woman blues
  so much to do
  yesterday's wines
  changing times

  my old hylux
  my lover
  and me
