about

A folk-blues song about breaking down in the middle of nowhere. Based on a true story.

lyrics

I’ve packed my bags
Gotta lighten my load
Hired a Beat up 4wd And I’m heading out on the road
Heard a rattling sound
A metallic squeal
In the middle of the road and I’m swaying on 3 wheels
Car lying dead
I’m all alone
Nothing to do but wait and think of getting home
Dust cloud appears
For my salvation
Gonna hitch a ride
To...

Drysdale Station
Oh no
And I'm stuck here until
Further information

4 walls surround me
Outside the dust swirled
Public phone hidden in a fridge
Only link to the world
No cars to be hired
In this part of the nation
Looks like I’ll be staying here a while

Drysdale Station
Oh no
And I'm stuck here until
Further information

My food is running out
Just one tin of salmon
looking at the dust and dirt and approaching famine
Found an airfield down the road
with rising elation
chartered plane the only way to get out of...

Drysdale Station
Oh no
And I'm stuck here until
Further information
Drysdale Station
Oh no
And I'm stuck here until
Further information
