John Williamson - Mates on the Road

True Blue

Hey, true blue
Don't say you've gone
Say you've knocked off for a smoko
And you'll be back later on
Hey, true blue

Hey, true blue
Give it to me straight
Face to face
Are you really disappearing?
Just another dying race
Hey, true blue
(You can sing with me)

True blue
Is it me and you?
Is it mum and dad?
Is it a cockatoo?
Is it standing by your mate
When he's in a fight?
Or will she be right?
True blue, I'm asking you

Hey, true blue
Can you bear the load?
Will you tie it up with wire
Just to keep the show on the road?
Hey, true blue

Hey, true blue
Now be fair dinkum
Is your heart still there?
If they sell us out like sponge cake
Do you really care?
Hey, true blue

(Here's where you really join in)
True blue (is it me and you?)
Is it me and you? (Mum and dad)
Is it mum and dad? (Cockatoo)
Is it a cockatoo? (Standing by your mate)
Is it standing by your mate?
When she's in a fight
Or will she be right?
True blue (last chance)
I'm asking you

True blue
Is it me and you?
Is it mum and dad?
Is it a kangaroo?
Is it standing by your mate
When he's in a fight?
Or will she be right?
True blue
True blue

Thank you
