Billy was a friend of mine

We drove the midnight run

And on the planes outside of hay

We'd race our rigs for fun

Just before the borderline a girl's voice filled the air

Calling on the CV Billy knew girls everywhere

Now this one he called Sally

She ran a pub somewhere

She knew the codes and all the

Roads that led away from there

When the scalies stopped to drink

She'd find out where they'd been

And radioed their whereabouts to Billy and our team

Yes there's the girl on the radio

She's using Channel 8

Calling out to Billy when to move and when to wait

He wouldn't tell us where

She was 'cause that would blow the game

Where Sally's on the air

He'd call The Pub Without a Name

Billy lost some points for

Driving hours in excess

The RTA was after him

He was hounded more or less

Still he kept on driving late

I guess that's all he know

I saw him roar up laugh and say

And Sal will guide me through

That night he struck a thunderstorm

His radio went out

He took the long way round

In case the scalies were about

The night was dark and raining

It was such a rotten bend

Where Billy missed the turn-off

And jack-dived to his end

Well there's the girl on the radio

She's using Channel 8

Calling out to Billy trying to find out why he's late

He wouldn't tell us where

She was 'cause that would blow the game

But I pictured Sally waiting at the Pub Without a Name

I gave a bloke a ride that night

I couldn't see his face

He seemed to be familiar like

I knew him from some place

He asked me if I knew the pub in the town just further on

But when I turned to answer him

My passenger was gone

I stopped the truck

I searched the roads hoped he didn't fall

But everything was still like

There'd been no one there at all

I headed for the town

He said and found that one hotel

And there behind the bar was a girl they all called Sal

Yeah she's the girl on the radio

She's using Channel 8

Calling out to Billy when to

Move and when to wait

I'd like to tell you where

She is but that would blow the game

'Cause Sally she still operates

The Pub Without a Name

Yes the Pub Without a Name my friend

Is somewhere that I've been

And if the scalies ask

you say it's just a trucker's dream

I'd like to tell you where

She is but that would blow the game

'Cause Sally

She still operates the Pub Without a Name

Yeah Sally she's still on the air

At the Pub Without a Name
