The Ride

A soft purr,
A loud roar,
Pedal to the metal,
Bolting to the bush,

A leg of straight nothing,
A long road ahead,
The hot blazing sun,
In the heat of the Avro,

A bucket of Sweat,
A frost bitten fist,
Tiers are squealing,
Like a skate on ice,

A mummering crowd,
A drink late at night,
At a pub in the outback,
The Black Dog stays tonight.
