Theres a strong wind blowing off the mountain
It`s not a welcome sight
From a cigarette swag on a two dog night
Im so tired of this droving
the dirt, the durt and heat
I`m weary to my bones but I can`t sleep
CHORUS1
It`s a long night staring at the fire light
It`s a long night missin` you
It`s a long night and the wind begins to bite
It`s a lonely night missing you
Andy drives a road train, He`s been away a while
but to make ends meet, he`s gotta make a mile
By morning if he drives all night, he just might make it home
He calls Mary on his satellite telephone
and he says
CHORUS2
It`s a long night staring at the dash board light
It`s a long night missin` you
It`s a long night and the wind begins to bite
It`s a lonely night missing you
Maggie`s beau shoots roos for a living while she waits at home
And there`s a Quantas piliot flying out to Rome
Nurses are doing nightshift while a copper walks the beat
And I`m still crowding the fire trying to make some heat
CHORUS 1
