Adam Brand - Uncle Pete lyrics

my uncle pete was a trucker
riding that nullarbour plain
ten split gears & an overdrive
chrome stacks shooting out flames.

he would throw me up into the cab
my little hands would grip the wheel
i´d dream about the day
i´d drive that rig for real

rolling, rolling, rolling around the world
ten yeahrs old & ten feet tall, waving goodbye
to the girl next door
rolling, rolling today i am the king of the street
i got my sleeves rolled up & my arm hanging out
as i drive off with uncle pete
as i drive off with uncle pete

heading west on highway one
my eyes glued to the road
the two-way always in my hand
"little buddy" that is my code

we pull into micks for a pie & chips
not a brussel sprout in sight
some yarns to spin as we listen to slim
then we drive into the night

if i had one wish i would want to be
if i had one wish i would want to be
if i had one wish i would want to be like my uncle pete
