Got a rusty old truck, it rattles and it shakes,
Got power steering and power brakes.
Pretty good tires and the glass ainít broke,
Got a automatic tranny and a manual choke.
It's big and it's ugly and it gobbles up the gas,
If the Bethel Roadsíd let it, it'd go real fast.
Four wheel drive and the motor's real big--
It's a rut-ridin, boat totin, dog-haulin, Badass Bethel Rig.
From the sewer lagoon to the BIA,
From Tundra Ridge clear to Hangar Lake.
Housing, Uivic, Airport, Slough--
Been everywhere in Bethel a time or two.
It's big and it's ugly and it gobbles up the gas,
If the Bethel Roadsíd let it, it'd go real fast.
Four wheel drive and the motor's real big--
It's a rut-ridin, boat totin, dog-haulin, Badass Bethel Rig.
I drive it on the river when it's covered up with ice,
Roll down the window when the weather's real nice.
Starts every mornin though it's frozen to the bone.
No matter how I beat it up, it always gets me home.
It's big and it's ugly and it gobbles up the gas,
If the Bethel Roadsíd let it, it'd go real fast.
Four wheel drive and the motor's real big--
It's a rut-ridin, boat totin, dog-haulin, Badass Bethel Rig.
I always change the oil in it once or twice a year
So I can make it to the airport when it's time to get my beer.
I used to have some music when the radio worked.
I even over-hauled the carburetor when the motor jerked.
It's big and it's ugly and it gobbles up the gas,
If the Bethel Roadsíd let it, it'd go real fast.
Four wheel drive and the motor's real big--
It's a rut-ridin, boat totin, dog-haulin, Badass Bethel Rig.
