There once was a truck driver His name was Danny Keen And I'll tell you his ol' story Of how he plunged into the sea He was a-bookin' down the line His load was a-haulin' low Well Danny traveled mighty fast And that's the opposite of slow Danny Keen and his machine Lying at the bottom of the sea He was practically a saint And he always ate his peas Lookin' out the window Coastal highway 44 And he saw an injured opossum On the shoulder of the road Danny was a caring, compassionate man As all truck drivers are He wanted to help this opossum That he saw lyin' thar Danny Keen and his machine Lying at the bottom of the sea He was practically a saint And he always ate his peas He pulled over He was gonna get out He pulled over And then he heard a shout Look out, look out, look out, look out, aah! A drunken cycle driver Had done slammed into his rig Hit hard enough to push him off the cliff And the cliff was awful big Danny fell into the ocean His big shiny rig and him (plop) But he was a real good swimmer But in a truck it's hard to swim Oh Danny died at sea that night But a good thing came about That ol' critter was healed Just by the love in Danny's heart Well buddies, that mangy ol' opossum Went on to become the President of the United States of America And he had an island built to commemorate Danny Keen The bravest driver this world's ever seen And I looked down Saw my new eyes standin' at my feet
