We tore up all of our swindle sheets & left em settin' on the scales

They'd brought up some reinforcements from the Illonois National Guard
There's armoured cars & tanks & Jeeps & Rigs of every size

And eleven long haired friends of Jesus in a chartruse MicroBus

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
Cause we got a MIGHTY convoy
E
****Ah ten four Pig Pen what's your twenty

Well Mercy sakes good buddy, we're gonna back on outta here
So keep the bugs off your glass & the Bears off your tail

This here's the Rubber Duck on the side
We gone Bye Bye.
