_ Well now you see that fella in the Louisville He's _ got a mighty fine opinion of his [F#] driving
skills _ _ Give him half a chance and he'll bash your
[C#] ear _ Tell [G#] you how good he [G#m] is
He [C#] can drive all night and he can drive all day
And still be on the ball or so [F#] he'll say But I can share a little yarn about his [C#] claimed
fame _ [G#] He'd rather not talk about
[C#] It was on the new highway in July last year Somewhere _ after midnight it was cold [F#] but clear
I see this big rig parked in the [C#] middle of the road
Lit [G#]
up like a Christmas tree [C#] Well you can well imagine I expected the worst
So I thought I'd take a look in the [F#] cabin first _ Then I see you, now who, by the side
of [C#] the road _ Standing [G#] there staring at the stars
And yellow, [C#] beam me up Scotty I'm ready to ride
_ To take my place at the helm of the [F#] Enterprise _ And long to go through those [C#] starry skies
[G#] Hey I've proved my worth down here on Earth I'm [C#] a Star Trucker, _ [F#]
Star Trucker
And [G#] it's time [C#] for me to go into planetary [F#] I'm a Star, [G#] Star [C#] _ Trucker

_ I've got to tell you boys it took me by surprise To see the crazy look in that poor [F#] bloke's
eyes Now when this evening comes and Willie starts
[C#] _ to scream Klingons [G#] off the starboard bow
[C#] Then I have the flesh on how to make it work _ _ I says Sanders not the Klingons it's [F#] Captain
Kirk _ He says sorry Captain's been a [C#] hell of a day
And [G#] I just can't push it any [D#m] harder [C#] So beam me up Scotty I'm ready to ride _ _
To take my place at the helm of [F#] the Enterprise _ _ And long to go through [C#] those starry skies
Hey [G#] I've proved my worth down here [C#] on Earth I'm a Star Trucker, [F#] Star Trucker
[G#] And it's time for [C#] me to go into [F#] planetary I'm a Star, [G#] [C#] Star Trucker
