Forty Miles to Saturday Night

歌詞

Well I rubbed the dirt all down And I washed away six aching days And my shoes all slick and spit And my singlet fresh and my sideburns shaved As I turn from the mirror And I open my first beer since yesterday Danny brings the Bedford round A three-ton girl with a ten-foot tray And she knows the way to town So we kiss goodbye to two weeks' pay Now the leaves are shaking And the stars are all waking from the day Big wheel turning (turning all night) Big light burning (burning so bright) Downright foolish but that's alright It's only forty miles to Saturday night! There's a place on Fortune Street And a band down there called Gunga Din And Joanne from Miner's Creek She said that she'd be back again She lives out on the station And she works on my imagination Big wheel turning (turning all night) Big light burning (burning so bright) Downright foolish but that's alright It's only forty miles to Saturday night!
