Songtexte Under the Spell of Highway One - Slim Dusty

I got this big rig rolling down Highway One
Heading south from the northern Queensland sun
I got a woman playing on my mind
I'm in a mess and there's just no time
To think about things and the way it might have been
The white line casts its deadly spell on me
I need some strong black coffee and a bite to eat
Been on the road since late last week
I really need a good night's sleep
And maybe I'll begin to understand
Slipping under the spell of the highway
I feel I'm gonna go under
I feel like a man who's on the run
Slipping under the spell of the highway
My heart is beating like thunder
Slipping under the spell of Highway One
Been pushing this old rig more than I should
I'd give the game away if only I could
I've got a king size overdraft
And a woman who haunts me from the past
And I'm beginning to wonder if it's all worthwhile
Gotta get this load in right on time
I can't afford to lose this contract of mine
I'm praying this old rig will last
I'm losing concentration fast
And if tomorrow ever comes it won't be too late
Slipping under the spell of the highway
I feel I'm gonna go under
I feel like a man who's on the run
Slipping under the spell of the highway
My heart is beating like thunder
Slipping under the spell of Highway One
Slipping under the spell of the highway
I feel I'm gonna go under
I feel like a man who's on the run
Slipping under the spell of the highway
My heart is beating like thunder
Slipping under the spell of Highway One
Slipping under the spell of Highway One
