Coober Pedy

Tyres goin’ bald
Engine’s blowin’ smoke
Radio don’t work
Neither does the choke

Well he’s had himself a shower
He’s been down a hole all day
And he’s headin’ into town
To howl the night away

Well he’s in love
Big time honey
You can see it in his eye
Every time she swishes by
He’s in love
He’s in love
With the girl behind the bar n coober pedy

Well his after shave is cheap
And his hair is goin’ thin
His boots are polished up
And his flannelette’s tucked in
He’s got a pack of winnie blues
And a zippo for some class
And if you suggest it otherwise
You can blow it out your trumpet

Well he’s in love
Big time honey
You can see it in his eye
Every time she swishes by
He’s in love
He’s in love
With the girl behind the bar n coober pedy

Well he goes to ask her on a date whenever it’s his shout
He’ll think of somethin’ good to say and then he chickens out
He sees a lack of interest as a just playin’ hard to get
She’s already got a fella
He just doesn’t know that yet

Well he’s in love
Big time honey
You can see it in his eye
Every time she swishes by
He’s in love
He’s in love
With the girl behind the bar n coober pedy

With the girl behind the bar
In coober pedy
