Lyrics
Yeah, breaker 1-9
This here's the Rubber Duck
You got a copy on me, Pig Pen, c'mon?
Uh, yeah, 10-4, Pig Pen, for sure, for sure
By golly! It's clean clear to Flag Town, c'mon?
Yeah, it's a big 10-4 there, Pig Pen
Yeah, we definitely got the front door, good buddy
Mercy sakes alive! Looks like we've got us a convoy
It was the dark of the moon on the sixth of June
In a Kenworth, pullin' logs
Cabover Pete with a reefer on
And a Jimmy haulin' hogs
We was headin' for bear on I-10
'Bout a mile outta Shakey Town
I says, "Pig Pen, this here's Rubber Duck
And I'm about to put the hammer down"
'Cause we got a little ol' convoy
Rockin' through the night
Yeah, we got a little ol' convoy
Ain't she a beautiful sight?
Come on and join our convoy
Ain't nothin' gonna get in our way
We gonna roll this truckin' convoy
'Cross the USA
Convoy
Yeah, breaker, Pig Pen, this here's The Duck
And, uh, you wanna back off them hogs?
Convoy
Uh, 10-4, about five mile or so
10-Roger, them hogs is gettin' intense up here
By the time we got into Tulsa Town
We had eighty-five trucks in all
But they's a road block up on the clover leaf
And them bears was wall to wall
Yeah, them smokies as thick as bugs on a bumper
They even had a bear in the air
I says, "Callin' all trucks, this here's The Duck
We about to go a-huntin' bear"
'Cause we got a great big convoy
Rockin' through the night
Yeah, we got a great big convoy
Ain't she a beautiful sight?
Come on and join our convoy
Ain't nothin' gonna get in our way
We gonna roll this truckin' convoy
'Cross the USA
Convoy
Uh, you wanna give me a 10-9 on that, Pig Pen?
Convoy
Uh, negatory, Pig Pen, you're still too close
Yeah, them hogs is startin' to close up my sinuses
Mercy sakes! You'd better back off another 10
Well, we rolled up Interstate 44
Like a rocket sled on rails
We tore up all of our swindle sheets
And left 'em settin' on the scales
By the time we hit that Chi-Town
Them bears was a-gettin' smart
They'd brought up some reinforcements
From the Illinois National Guard
There's armored cars and tanks and jeeps
And rigs of every size
Yeah, them chicken coops was full of bears
And choppers filled the skies
Well, we shot the line, we went for broke
With a thousand screamin' trucks
And eleven long-haired Friends of Jesus
In a chartreuse microbus
Yeah, Rubber Duck to Sod Buster
C'mon there, yeah, 10-4, Sod Buster
Listen, you wanna put that microbus in behind that suicide jockey?
Yeah, he's haulin' dynamite
And he needs all the help he can get
Well, we laid a strip for the Jersey Shore
Prepared to cross the line
I could see the bridge was lined with bears
But I didn't have a doggone dime
I says, "Pig Pen, this here's the Rubber Duck
We just ain't a-gonna pay no toll"
So we crashed the gate doin' ninety-eight
I says, "Let them truckers roll, 10-4"
'Cause we got a mighty convoy
Rockin' through the night
Yeah, we got a mighty convoy
Ain't she a beautiful sight?
Come on and join our convoy
Ain't nothin' gonna get in our way
We gonna roll this truckin' convoy
'Cross the USA
Convoy
Ah, 10-4, Pig Pen, what's your 20?
Omaha?
Well, they oughta know what to do with them hogs out there for sure
Well, mercy sakes, good buddy!
We gonna back on outta here
So keep the bugs off your glass
And the bears off your tail
We'll catch you on the flip flop
This here's Rubber Duck on the side
We gone, bye-bye
