Verse 1
A
I was on the outskirts
of a little southern town
D
Tryin' to reach my destination
before the sun went down
A
The old CB was blarin' away on
channel 1- 9
E
When there came a little boy's
Verse 2
voice on the radio line
A
"Breaker 1- 9, is anyone there?
Come on back,
D
truckers and talk to Teddy Bear"
A
Well, I keyed the mike and said,
E
"You got it, Teddy Bear"
A
And a little boy's voice came
back on the air
Verse 3
A
Appreciate the Breaker
who we got on that end
I told him my handle and
D
then he began
Though I'm not supposed to
A
bother you fellows out there
Mom says, you're busy and
E
for me to stay off the air
Verse 4
E
But you see I get lonely
A
and it helps to talk
'Cause that's about all I can do,
D
I'm crippled and I can't walk
A
I came back and told him to
E
fire up that mike
And I'd talk to him as
A
long as he'd liked
Verse 5
D
"This was my dad's radio",
A
the little boy said
But I guess it's mine and mom's now,
D
'cause my daddy's dead
A
Dad had a wreck about a month ago
He was tryin' to get home
E
in a blindin' snow
Verse 6
E
Mom has to work now to
A
make ends meet
And I'm not much help with
D
my two crippled feet
She says not to worry that
A
we'll make it alright
E
But I hear her cryin' sometimes
A
late at night
Verse 7
A
You know there's one thing,
I want more than anything else to see
D
Oh I know you guys are too
A
busy to bother with me
E
But you see my dad used to take me
for rides when he was home
A
But I guess that's all over now
since my daddy's gone
D
Not one breaker came on
Verse 8
the old CB
A
As that little crippled boy talked with me
E
A
I tried hard to swallow a lump
just wouldn't stay down
As I thought about my boy
back in Greenville Town
Verse 9
A
Dad was gonna take mom and
D
me with him later on this year
Why I remember him sayin' someday
A
This old truck will be yours Teddy Bear
E
But I know now, I'll never get
a ride on 18- wheeler again
A
But this old base'll keep me in touch
with all my trucker friends
D
Teddy Bear's gonna
Verse 10
D
back on
out now and leave you alone
A
'Cause it's about time for
mom to come home
E
But you give me shout when you're
A
passin' through
And I'll surely be happy
E
A
to come back to you
Verse 11
A
Well, I came back and I said,
D
"Before you go 10- 10
What's your home 20 little CB friend?"
A
Well, he gave me his address
and I didn't once hesitate
E
'Cause this hot load of freight
A
would just have to wait
Verse 12
A
I turened that truck around on a dime
D
And headed straight for
A
Jackson Street 229
And as I rounded the corner, oh,
E
A
I got one the heck of a shock
18- wheeler were lined up for three city blocks
Verse 13
A
I guess every driver for miles around
had caught Teddy Bear's call
D
And that little crippled
boy was havin' a ball
A
For as fast as one driver
would carry him in
Another would carry him to his
E
truck and take off again
Verse 14
E
Well, you better believe I took my turn
A
D
rifin' Teddy Bear
A
And then carried him back in and
E
put him down in his chair
A
And buddy if I never live to
see happiness again
I want you to know, I saw it that day
in the face of that little man
Verse 15
D
We took up a collection for him before
his mama got home
A
And each driver said goodbye and
then they were all gone
E
He shook my hand with a mile long grin
And said, "So long trucker
A
I'll catch you again"
Verse 16
A
D
Well, I hit that Interstate with tears in my eyes
I turned on the radio and I got
A
another surprise
E
A
Breaker 1- 9, came the voice on the air
E
A
Just one word of thanks
D
A
from mama Teddy Bear
Verse 17
A
We wish each and everyone a special
D
prayer for you
'Cause you just made my little
A
boy's dream come true
E
I'll sign off now before I start to cry
A
May God ride with you
