The Trucks Came Through

(album: Backroad Nation - 2019)

The dams had all run dry, empty clouds across the sky
And the breeding stock had left, the paddocks bare
There was dust across the land, we were feeding stock by hand
Just holding on and nothing left to spare

And the trucks came through, one then two
Then an army close behind, getting hope across the line
The big wheels roll, bales of gold
An answer to a prayer to see 'em there
The trucks came through

From the big and little towns, from the north and from the south
Loaded up and giving what they can
And they spent days out on the road, just hauling in the load
For mates we never we had

Yeah, the trucks came through, one then two
Then an army close behind, getting hope across the line
The big wheels roll, bales of gold
An answer to a prayer to see 'em there
The trucks came through

And when these days are done
And the rivers run
We won't forget

The trucks came through, one then two
Then an army close behind, getting hope across the line
The big wheels roll, bales of gold
An answer to a prayer to see 'em there
Oh, the trucks came through

Yeah, the trucks came through

Yeah, the trucks came through
