Legend of the Lady Bear

Gather round me boys and fill your coffee cups

I'll tell you all a story while you drive them trucks

A story bout a girl who joined the state patrol

The legend of the Lady Bear is how it goes

She married some young trucker she was in her teens

And like all newly weds they had their hopes and dreams

And one night in a snowstorm so the story went

She lost her loving husband in an accident

They say she sat and cried for him a year or more

And all she did was think of him and walk the floor

She'd lie there in her bed at night alone and cold

Until one day she joined the highway state patrol

Well they say she has a CB and she's on the air

And she goes by the handle of the Lady Bear

She never gives a ticket and she works at night

All she does is tell the story of her life

I've heard some truckers say there ain't no Lady Bear

And others say she don't work when the weather's fair

But when the weather's bad she's on the air all night

Begging us to slow down till the weather's right

Well you know I love this story well it could be true

If you're ever in a snowstorm tell you what to do

If you should hear the Lady Bear on your radio

Well tell her I wrote this song and said hello
