Home And Broken Hearted - Cold Chisel
Hiked up to Sydney in the week before Christmas It was thirty-eight degrees in the shade Bought a second-hand Morris for a cheap two-twenty And drove it down to Adelaide She boiled for an hour twenty miles out of Euston I thought the heat would never end But I knew I'd be home for Christmas with my Sandy And a few extra dollars to spend I drove it to the buyer just as fast as I could go I was talking to his teenage son I sure hope it lasted for the poor little bastard At least until he'd had some fun I caught a taxi homeward with great anticipation Thinkin' all you have to do is try There was a note propped up against the dressing table mirror
