I've traveled across the country on every bait and trackFrom the sugar cane to the Nullarbor Plain, and I've been to BirkenbackBut there's nothing I like better, just before Australia DayThan heading down the New England HighwayGot my boots on, got my hat onGot my whole body onGuitar and a new songFor a week I'll be where I belongWith the big stars, golden guitarsDream we'll be out somedayCruising the New England HighwayThey'll be busking down on Peel StreetLooking for a lucky breakThere's the Choke Man and the One Man BandAnd Slim Dusty's in the cavalcadeThere's nothing I like better, just before Australia DayThan heading down the New England HighwayGot my boots on, got my hat onGot my whole body onGot my whole body onGuitar and a new songFor a week I'll be where I belongWith the big stars, golden guitarsDream we'll be out somedayCruising the New England Highwayguitar sologuitar sologuitar sologuitar sologuitar sologuitar sologuitar sologuitar sologuitar sologuitar sologuitar soloWe're cruising the New England Highway
