Famous in Königsberg, Klopse.
But he won't be the Königsberger. Yes.

_ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ I wheeled into a truck [Eb] stop, didn't I, sir?
[Eb] A little place called the Half-Burger [Bb] Dan.
I heard that old jukebox playing a [Bb] song about a truck [Eb] driving man.
I had to wait to stun and brought [Ab] me my coffee.
[Eb] I thanked her and I called [C] her back again.
I said, you know, that song [Ab] sure do fit me.
_ [Bb] I'm just a truck driving man.
So pour me another [Ab] cup of coffee.
[Eb] For it is the best in [Bb] the land.
[Eb] And drop another quarter in the [Ab] jukebox.
For this [Bb] song about a truck driving [Eb] man.
_ Climbed up the board in my old [Ab] semi. _
[Eb] Then like a flash [Bb] I was gone.
[Eb] I got off and the big [Ab] wheels were rolling.
_ [Bb] I'm on my [Eb] way to Santa.
So pour me another cup of coffee.
For it is the best in the [Bb] land.
And [Eb] drop another quarter [Ab] in the jukebox.
[Bb] Play a song about a truck [Eb] driving man.
And [Bb] I'm just a truck driving man. _ _

How's it going, people of Dave Dudley?
I have one more question.
