Slip the clutch in the bull nose truck I'm heading for the boat Well I never said goodbye to the woman this time And I left her a note Well I'm up three steps in heaven Well on the highway to hell And I know it'll be a while Before I say goodbye 'Cause I know you're looking well It was just my luck to be given a truck With an eeget of a load And a vice grapes and hammer and adjustable spanner and a roarin' V8 STO The tachograph was turning black as I passed the London Eye With one eye on the road and the other on the phone Took a selfie passing by All chains and cranes up roads and lanes And slurry and money by the tonne Blowing the airhorn loud going through the towns And starting her on the run Hauling wood and grum up this double-drive top As the road was rubbing the flaps Well there was a good laugh 'till I broke a half shaft And busted the gearbox Fifty toone plus and forty foot behind Twenty-four-seven on the O 19 And baby I'm coming back to you Oh slip the clutch in the bull nose truck I'm heading for the boat Well I never said goodbye to the woman this time And I left her a note Well I'm up three steps in heaven well on the highway to hell And I know it'll be a while before I say goodbye 'Cause I know you're looking well Slap some grease on the fifth-wheel base And legs and pipes and lights Go under the Liffey in Dublin City Like New York City at night Hauling for the council with airbags Bouncing and tipping ramp still up Had to tip the load while still on the go 'Cause I hadn't got time to stop Hauling meal and grain on boats and trains And oil and fags and drink And driving like hell until the self propel And hope that she didn't sink If your luck runs out get home on the bounce And get super Hampton Boots Buy a loaf and a V8 coat and twenty lamps for the roof Fifty toone plus and forty foot behind Twenty four seven on the O 19 And baby I'm coming back to you Oh slip the clutch in the bull nose truck I'm heading for the boat Well I never said goodbye to the woman this time And I left her a note Well I'm up three steps in heaven well on the highway to hell And I know it'll be a while before I say goodbye 'Cause I know you're looking well Doing the tonne while I'm down the M1 When the limiter fuse did melt When the woman rang and said sorry tang But you know I met someone else With two chrome stacks roarin' up the back On the bang flat out in top My only fear in an understeer Would I get her stopped at the dock Rojo honey got the hammer to the floor And if that's your twenty that's a big ten four But baby I'm still coming back to you Oh slip the clutch in the bull nose truck I'm heading for the boat Well I never said goodbye to the woman this time And I left her a note Well I'm up three steps in heaven well on the highway to hell And I know it'll be a while before I say goodbye 'Cause I know you're looking well
