Corb Lund - The Truck Got Stuck Talkin' Blues

The Chev got stuck and the Ford got stuck 


But the Chev unstuck when the Dodge showed up 


But the Dodge got stuck in the tractor rut, 


Which eventually pulled out the Ford 


With some difficulty 





Well more rain than we’d seen for a thousand years 


Caused financial joys and biblical fears 


It caused some smiles it caused some tears 


But more to the point of our story 


For The first time in the collective memory, 


That old brown prairie that had been so dry for so long was very muddy 


Boggy and sticky 


We’d pull one truck out and get another stuck in 


And motors would roar and tires would spin 


We’d sink right down, down to the diff, and we’d all take turns and do it again 


Till no one could move, we’d call one more friend, 


Come on out here, we need you…bring your truck 





The Chev got stuck and the Ford got stuck 


But the Chev unstuck when the Dodge showed up 


But the Dodge got stuck in the tractor rut 


Which eventually pulled out the Ford 


And the Dodge 





They got me stuck in the mud, so they couldn’t rehearse 


And Chavase too has missed his work 


Richie, he now fears the worst, he stood up his ex wife she called him a jerk 


Course Holman didn’t have nothing better do to, ‘cept ranch. 





The Chev got stuck and the Ford got stuck 


But the Chev unstuck when the Dodge showed up 


But the Dodge got stuck in the tractor rut 


Which eventually pulled out the Ford 





Well it was truck after truck, we all got stuck 


‘cept the big old four by hutterite truck 


We all thought “lord are we in luck!” 


But he wouldn’t come anywhere near us, 


Mighty neighborly, mighty neighborly. 





So we used a lot of our backs, a little of our brains 


We jacked up the jacks, and snugged up the chains, 


We all did our very best to refrain from shovelin’. 


We put what timber we had, underneath the wheels 


And we was all out of sand, but managed to steal 


Two sacks of the best modern canola seed you ever did see, 


That ‘oughta give us some traction 





The Chev got stuck and the Ford got stuck 


But the Chev unstuck when the Dodge showed up 


But the Dodge got stuck in the tractor rut 


Which eventually pulled out the Ford 





We spilled genetically modified canola seed 


That was genetically modified for controlling the weeds 


And for big old yields and margarine oil, raised hell all over that native prairie soil 


Agriculture Canada is definitely gonna be looking for us
