The Jogger - Bobby Bare[00:00:00]
Well I've been a trucker more than twenty years[00:00:05]
From the Charleston coast to the Jersey piers[00:00:08]
Sharing the road with race car nuts and loggers[00:00:11]
Sunday drivers scouts on hikes Hells Angels[00:00:17]
On Harley bikes[00:00:20]
I never met a roader I didn't like[00:00:22]
Except them joggers[00:00:25]
One day I'm rolling down 1-0-1[00:00:29]
I got 18 wheels under 14-tons[00:00:31]
Radio playing a good old country rocker[00:00:35]
The day was sure a trucker's dream[00:00:40]
The sky was sunny and the air was clean[00:00:43]
When up ahead on the road[00:00:46]
I seen one of them joggers[00:00:48]
He was dressed like they do in baby blue[00:00:52]
With shortie shorts and a headband too[00:00:55]
I yelled Sweetie I bet that you are the hit[00:00:58]
Of the men's room locker[00:01:02]
But I'm a running late with an overload[00:01:04]
So get your Adidas off a this road[00:01:07]
I'm LA bound and I don't slow down[00:01:09]
For dead raccoons or joggers[00:01:12]
Well without breaking stride or losing poise[00:01:16]
He said you and that rig sure make some noise[00:01:19]
But I can't talk now 'cause[00:01:22]
I'm racing against the clocker[00:01:24]
But it's just nine miles to Forkers Leap[00:01:28]
And if you ain't afraid to race that heap[00:01:31]
We'll see how that old rig[00:01:34]
Holds up against a super jogger[00:01:35]
Race I must be hearing wrong[00:01:41]
The boy's been running in the sun too long[00:01:44]
The only place he's racing to is a doctor's[00:01:46]
But before I could say thank you no[00:01:52]
That fool yells ready get set go[00:01:55]
And the race is on we're off and gone[00:01:58]
Me and that maniac jogger[00:02:01]
I could've left him far behind[00:02:08]
But I played with him like a fish on a line[00:02:10]
And I stayed about a half a mile behind that sucker[00:02:13]
Then I pushed her up to forty-five[00:02:19]
And he sees me coming and he starts to fly[00:02:22]
So I kicked her to sixty and shift to high[00:02:25]
And finally catch that jogger[00:02:28]
And it wasn't easy[00:02:30]
Now I'm doing eighty and I turned to check[00:02:32]
And he's staying right with me neck in neck[00:02:35]
His hearts a thumping like my engine[00:02:38]
Going pop pop pocker[00:02:40]
Then he yells out I hope you're set[00:02:43]
'Cause I ain't shifted into second yet[00:02:46]
Then he unwinds and leaves me behind[00:02:49]
Eaten the dust of a jogger[00:02:52]
Then I see him jogging up into the sky[00:02:56]
And he yells hey thanks for the exercise[00:02:59]
I hope that losing this race was not too shocking[00:03:02]
You see my dad says heaven's no place to run[00:03:08]
I try to be an obedient son[00:03:11]
So I got to come down to earth to do my jogging[00:03:14]
Well that's my story take it or leave it[00:03:20]
My trucker buddies they believe it[00:03:23]
So do those race car nuts and Harley hoggers[00:03:26]
And I'm still driving much the same[00:03:31]
Except I don't call nobody names[00:03:34]
And I tip my hat each time[00:03:37]
I pass one of them good old joggers[00:03:40]
Hey here one now[00:03:47]
Hey good buddy[00:03:50]
How you doing[00:03:51]
Want some gatorade[00:03:54]
