Bob is playing with a slide in this part.  I'm not exactly sure about this but I think it's a little close.

Break- One Nine                           Like most - Chevys coast to coast
Got your boots on		              People start to ride
Gearjammer set                            Dream machine burnin' wides
Boogie van so far                         Layin' a furious yard It smokes awful far
How do you read me?                       Highback chair is low
Three's and Eight's high                  Rollin' faster off they go
Some kind of joyride                      Tires roll flare to flare
Double-nickel right by                    Custom shine everywhere                   
In here - everything I need               One-fifty I don’t care
Style - built for speed                   Half-way across the land
Mother Trucker runnin’ low                Me and My Boogie Van
Four wheels - overflow                    Movin’ on down the line
Others passin' by                         Here we go one more time
Still movin’ down the line 
So say ~ the written down
Two down - Now the third
The greatest thing I’ve seen
Do y’all know what I mean?
Meeting Twenty was the plan
Me and my Boogie Van

That’s basically it.  I’ll tab the solo out later, but this should be enough just to mess around with.
