Slim Dusty
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
From coast to coast by night and day, hear the clickin' of the wheels
2
The hummin' of the diesel on her ribbons of steel
3
Carryin' the memories of a nation built by hand
4
See the Indian Pacific span the land
5
She's the pride of all the railway men 'cross country where she flies
6
From the blue Pacific waters to where the mountains rise
7
By lakes and wide brown rivers, through desert country dry
8
See the Indian Pacific passin' by
9
Oh the Indian Pacific she goes rollin' down the track
10
Five thousand miles to travel before she's there and back
11
Beside the line, a drover waves his battered old grey hat
12
And kids are catchin' yabbies down by the river flat
13
And a woman hangs her washing in a backyard near the line
14
As the Indian Pacific's rollin' by
15
Instrumental
16
Hear the whistle blowin' lonely 'neath the Nullabor star light
17
Saluting those who walk across the track she romps tonight
18
Callin' to the railway camp and the fettlers on the line
19
I'm the Indian Pacific, right on time
20
From the silver of the Broken Hill to old Kalgoorlie gold
21
She mirrors all the colours of the land so hard and old
22
Then the western clouds are blooming and the air is just like wine
23
And the Indian Pacific's makin' time
24
Oh the Indian Pacific she goes rollin' down the track
25
Five thousand miles to travel before she's there and back
26
From the waters of the western sea to the eastern ocean sand
27
The Indian Pacific spans the land
28
Oh the Indian Pacific spans the land
