Lyrics Lights on the Hill - Troy Cassar-Daley , Adam Harvey

It's a long straight road and the engine is deep
I can't help thinkin' 'bout a good night's sleep
And the long, long roads of my life are a callin' me
These rough old hands are a-glued to the wheel
My eyes full of sand from the way they feel
The lights comin' over the hill are a-blinding me

Well, it's a long, tough haul from a-way down south
A man's gotta find a little bread for his mouth
And a home for my girl as sweet as my honey can be
So, it's down through the gears, she's a-startin' to pull
The gauge on the tank is showin' near full
But the lights comin' over the hill are a-blinding me

There's rain on the road, I can feel the load start a-shifting, in a dance
Too late, I see the post and I haven't got a ghost of a chance, oh-oh-oh-no
The windscreen wipers are a-beatin' in time
The song they sing is a part of my mind
I can't believe it's a-really happenin' to me
But I'm over the edge and down the mountain side
I know they'll tell about the night I died
In the rain when the lights on the hill were a-blindin' me
Hey

There's rain on the road and I can feel the load start a-shifting, in a dance
Too late, I see the post and I haven't got a ghost of a chance, oh-oh-oh-no
The windscreen wipers are a-beatin' in time
The song they sing is a part of my mind
I can't believe it's a-really happenin' to me
Oh, but I'm over the edge and down the mountain side
I know they'll tell about the night I died
In the rain when the lights on the hill were a-blindin' me
In the rain when the lights on the hill were a-blindin' me
