Last Loading Dock
By Jacobilly Jakebrake

G D C C
Here at the last loading dock he came in hot
He was griping about roadwork and some four-wheeler that cut him off
After cussin’ cooled him down he asked if we knew any jokes
Shaking our heads no he rattled off 10 in a row between smokes

He said he was a natural born tractor-trailer man from Missouri
He lived on a 3 acre farm outside of St. Louis
He had a church goin’ ,God fearin’ wife and a couple of grown kids
And when he wasn’t haulin’ he’d work on an old Chevy in the barn on skids

Here at the last loading dock we didn’t find out until the next day
His heart went out going down the grade from Denver on highway 70
In his final moments he pulled his rig over to the shoulder safely
He dialed channel 9 on his c.b. radio and said “Mayday, Over and out”
Over and out

CHORUS
G D C C
They say the road on forever when you die
G D Em C
Now old boy is headed to that truck stop in the sky
G D C C
Breaker, breaker, over and out, goodbye
G D Em C
Now hoss is headed to that truck stop in the sky
G D Em C
In the sky, in the sky, in the sky –aye- yi- aye
G D C C
Goodbye Goodbye

Here at the last loading dock we do not forget
You were the kind of guy I’d like to get a beer with if you didn’t always have to drive
You always had a good word or some kind of bullshit
I will always remember you as when you were alive

CHORUS
They say the road of life goes on forever when you die
Now old boy is headed to that truck stop in the sky
Breaker, breaker, over and out, goodbye
Now hoss is headed to that truck stop in the sky
In the sky, in the sky, in the sky –aye- yi- aye
Goodbye Goodbye end on G chord
