There's a saying in Australia when referring to a lot
Like how much did he bring along with him my mate..
Oh a bloody truck load they'll say then to explain
It's one thing about him I guess in life I really hate..

Well in Australia a truck load can be more than you know
As at times big trucks carry and pull the largest load..
With wide load written all over them one side to the other
Not leaving any room upon an old out back dirt or gravel road..

At times it takes two largest trucks to do the job all true
Machines etc for mines and so on away out there somewhere..
Days doing this at a time it often takes the drivers get it done
Out back heat and dust and almost too hot to breath the air..

If ever one comes across these largest rigs the only thing to do
Is pull over and simply allow them to crawl by along the way..
As the drivers have enough to worry about as it is at the time
And they don't want any cars under it all deep in the out back clay..

A truck load in Australia can be a load bigger than your very home
Absolutely tons and tons of things you'd not ever imagine at all..
That have to be hauled for endless miles on life's worse roads
Out where crows fly backwards as too hot for even them to call..
