 Ah breaker Pig Pen this here's the Duck
 Ah you wanna back off them hogs
 Ah ten four about five mile or so
 Ten Roger them hogs is gettin him tense up here

 Verse
 By the time we got into Tulsa town we had 85 trucks in all
 But there's a road block up on the clover leaf
 And them Bears was wall to wall
 Yeah them Smokeys was thick as bugs on a bumper
 They even had a Bear in the air
 I says callin all trucks this here's the Duck
 And we about to go ahuntin Bear

 CHO....
      E
 **** Ah you wanna give me a ten nine on that Pig Pen

      Yeah them hogs are startin to close up my sinuses
      Mercy sakes you better back off another  ten

 Verse
 Well we rolled up Interstate 44 like a rocket sled on rails
 We tore up all of our swindle sheets & left em settin' on the scales
 By the time we hit that shy town them bears was agettin smart
 They'd brought up some reinforcements from the Illonois National Guard
 There's armoured cars & tanks & Jeeps & Rigs of every size
 Yeah them chicken coops was full of Bears & choppers filled the skies
 Well we shot the line & we went for broke with a thousand screaming trucks
 And eleven long haired friends of Jesus in a chartruse MicroBus

      E
 **** Ah Rubber Duck this is Sod Buster come on
      Ah yeah ten four Sod Buster ... listenyou want to put that MicroBus
      In behind that Suicide Jockey
      Yeah he's haulin dynamite & he needs all the help he can get.


 Verse
 Well we laid a strip from the Jersey shore and 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 ten four

 CHO....Cause we got a MIGHTY convoy

      E
 ****Ah ten four Pig Pen what's your twenty
     Omaha
     We're gonna scare them hogs out there for sure
     Well Mercy sakes good buddy, we're gonna back on outta here
     So keep the bugs off your glass & the Bears off your tail
     We'll catch you on the flip flop
     This here's the Rubber Duck on the side
     We gone Bye Bye.
