Lyrics:

He'd done this run for a long time now
And he don't know why and he don't know how
But he'd never been late so they called him 'Dead on Time'
He painted the name on the bonnet in black
And the station kids on the mailman's track
Would all look out for the dust of 'Dead On Time'
Would all look out for the dust of 'Dead On Time'
I gotta be back for the kid's birthday
The mailman said as he waved hooray
And wheeled his truck on the long haul homeward bound
The wife's gonna make him a chocolate cake
They made me promise that I won't be late
I'll see you again when I come next time around
I'll see you again when I come next time around
Instrumental
But 'Dead On Time' ran outta luck
And he couldn't believe when his good old truck
Ground to a halt with a burnt out bearing whine
Not a tree in sight and the water bag low
Not a hope in hell of getting her to go
Didn't look too good at all for 'Dead On Time'
Didn't look too good at all for 'Dead On Time'
A birthday party and a chocolate cake
Went dancin' across the dry salt lake
Where the mirage met with the distant timber line
And the silent truck threw a meagre shade
Over the plea for help that he made
Scratched in the dirt on the road by \'Dead On Time'
He'd done this run for a long time now
And he don't know why and he don't know how
But he'd never been late so they called him 'Dead on Time'
He painted the name on the bonnet in black
And the station kids on the mailman's track
Still look out for the dust of \'Dead On Time'
Yeah!
