Shaky Town 

Trucker slang for San Franscisco.
Was the dark of the moon on the sixth of June,
In a Kenworth pullin' logs,
Cab-over Pete with a reefer on,
And a Jimmy haulin' hogs,
We is headin' for bear on I 1-0,
'Bout a mile outta Shaky Town,
I says, "Pig Pen, this here's the Rubber Duck,
And I'm about to put the hammer down." -"Convoy" by C.W. McCall
