Ive travelled across the country, on every beaten track,
from the sugarcane to the Nullarbor plain
and Ive been to Bourke and back,
but there's nothing I like better
just before Australia day
than heading down the New England highway
Got my boots on, got my hat on
got my old guitar and a new song
for a week I'll be where I belong
with big stars, golden guitars
dream will be ours some day
cruising the New England Highway
They'll be busking down on Peel street
looking for a lucky break, there's the chhok man
and the one man band, Slim Dusty's in the cavalcade
but there's nothing I like better
just before Australia day
than heading down the New England highway
Chorus,
crusing down the New England Highway x2
