[verse 1]
it was on a dark and stormy day
and the p-ssycat was snorin’
and since no one was around to play
the little puppy went explorin’

odie didn’t listen to our warning
that it wasn’t safe to roam
so he left the house on a rainy morning
and then he wandered far from home

down the avenue the puppy stumbled
to the warehouse part of town
and about that time the storm clouds rumbled
and the rain came pouring down

now as we all know, this dog is dense
and is not known for his brain
but he had at least the common sense
to seek shelter from the rain

well the truck in which he chose to nap
was the rig of billy bob
an honest and hard-working chap
who was desperate for a job

’til the day that rich guy came around
and said to billy’s glee:
“if you get this load there safe and sound
you can come and work for me”

it was quite a break for a guy who’s broke
so he loaded up the freight
and by the time that the dog awoke
they were on the interstate

when he found he had a dog aboard
billy bob was shocked and said
“to take you back, i can’t afford
we will have to press ahead”

[chorus]
keep on rollin’, keep on rollin’
rollin’ down the road
keep on rollin’, keep on rollin’
with your heavy load

keep on truckin’, keep on truckin’
that’s what truckers do
i got to keep on truckin’…
got to get on through

[verse 2]
well trucker bruce was a local blight
who was known from here to fargo
for running trucks off the road at night
to relieve them of their cargo

when he spotted billy’s p-ssing rig
he said with an evil smirk
“that trucker’s hauling something big
guess it’s time i went to work”

so he got his truck out on the double
’twas the biggest he could find
and billy knew he was in real big trouble
when he saw old bruce behind

billy shook and moaned and shivered
and he told the puppy why:
“we’ll never get this load delivered
if i can’t outrun this guy!”

the tire rubber almost burned
as they zoomed on down the trail
but no matter which way billy turned
he could see bruce on his tail

billy bob was hurrying
but it was a hopeless cause
and odie sat there worrying
with his face buried in his paws

he realized with great dismay
it was more than likely that
he never more would romp and play
with his friend, garfield the cat

if you’re wondering what became of me
i was nowhere near the road
i can’t rescue odie…
i’m not in this episode

[chorus 2]
keep on snorin’, keep on snorin’
back home safe and sound
keep on snorin’, keep on snorin’
most fun i have found

keep on sleepin’, keep on sleepin’
peaceful here alone
got to keep on sleepin’…
odie’s on his own

[verse 3]
now odie tried to leave his seat
when a spill he chanced to take
and he tumbled down near billy’s feet
and he fell onto the brake

the truck came to a sudden stop
right there on the interstate
and bruce found himself right on top
of an accident, first rate

but bruce, he had both sk!ll and luck
and he swerved upon that ridge
and he didn’t run into billy’s truck
but he did drive off the bridge

he hit the lake with a mighty splash
and it looked like there he’d stay
so billy bob, like a lightning flash
hit the gas and sped away

they didn’t see old bruce climb out
of his truck, all raining wet
they didn’t hear his angry shout:
“i’ll catch up with you yet!”

an hour later, billy stopped
to get something quick to eat
and odie napped, while billy shopped
’til a stranger took his seat

that truck bad bruce was going to grab
and his plan had but one flaw
for billy had seen him by the cab
and he’d notified the law

the sheriff slapped the cuffs on bruce
been hunting him all year
but then they saw the truck was loose
’cause he’d left the thing in gear

[chorus 3]
stop the rollin’, stop the rollin’
do not let it roll
stop the rollin’, stop the rollin’
truck out of control

stop the truckin’, stop the truckin’
or he won’t survive
got to stop the truckin’…
odie cannot drive

[verse 4]
the puppy dog was filled with fear
his horn went beep, beep, beep
he tried in vain the truck to steer
and hit things that weren’t cheap

just when it seemed to be a loss
the sheriff lent a hand
and billy bob, he swung across
and quickly took command

the puppy covered up his eyes
they rolled into a shop
and they both had a big surprise
when the truck came to a stop

this building was, they quickly found
the company’s address!
they’d brought the cargo safe and sound
with approximate success!

the job was billy bob’s to claim
as promised by the man
who had them paint his product’s name
on the side of billy’s van

next morning on another run
the pup came home for real
but when he told me what he’d done
i said, “big fat hairy deal”

it made no difference to this cat
but i was thunderstruck
when i saw the sign that revealed that
it was a lasagna truck!

there are heroes of most ev’ry kind
but the ones this cat adores
are the heroes who should be enshrined
who bring pasta to our stores

[chorus 4]
keep on rollin’, keep on rollin’
rollin’ down the road
keep on rollin’, keep on rollin’
with your heavy load

keep on truckin’, keep on truckin’
that’s what truckers do
got to keep on truckin’…
got to get on through
