lyrics

I got those hard travelling Newell Highway Blues
This road it is taking me away from you
The country is as big as my love for you
I got those Hard Travellin’ Newell Highway Blues

Left my home down south in old Victoria
By the time I hit Big river I’ll be missin’ you (ya)
My love is as big as the sky is blue
Newell highway will bring me back to you

I just keep a rollin down the road
A fiddle and a song my only load
Like a truckie making time
Like a man on the run
Newell Highway take me back to where I come from

And I gaze out across Wiradjuri lands
I sit and I wonder who I am
The days gone by and the future to come
Newell highway take me back to where I come from

I drive through the dusty little towns
I know that I will never settle down
Theres a song in my soul I’ll be singing it for you
I got those hard travellin’ Newell Highway Blues
