"Blue Pacific Rig" lyrics

"Blue Pacific Rig"

Oh, the dawn wind blows
Around my clothes
As I walk out to my rig
I feel complete
Climbin' up to my seat
Of my blue Pacific rig

She's big and fine
And she's all mine
She's power from end to end
When those big wheels roll
Deep within my soul
The freedom is born again

I'm gonna roll once more
On the Nullarbor
Across this land so big
The smoke will rise
Over Territory skies
From my blue Pacific rig

Yes, the heatwaves rise
Into Dreamtime skies
Where the Red Centre's wide and big
The days are long
But my grip is strong
On my blue Pacific rig

Headin' north, south, or west
To me, it's all the same
I've got mates out there
Scattered everywhere
Just to mention a few good names

Hey, there's Bob up north
And Spud down south
They're all worth a million quid, yeah
I live by the code
Of that long back road
In my blue Pacific rig

So, let the diesel flow
There's a long way to go
Before I'm home again
I never feel alone
Yeah, it's home-from-home
In my blue Pacific rig, hey

So, let the diesel flow
There's a long way to go
Before I'm home again
I never feel alone
It's home-from-home
In my blue Pacific rig
Let's roll now, hey
