Truckin' on down the line
Hey hey hey
I say keep on truckin'
Truckin' my blues away.

Keep on truckin' mama
Truckin' my troubles away.

Truckin' my troubles away.
Do that thing you do so well

By the way that you smell.

Truckin' my troubles away.

Keep on truckin'

An extremely popular 1960's hippie saying that was made ubiquitously famous by the one-of-a-kind, extremely esoteric and eventually iconic comic strips and books which appeared and evolved from within the exquisitely unique mind of the mad-genius cartoonist R. Crumb. These three simple words of encouragement reinforced the then-prevailing idea that people should be able to feel confident about staying true to their own chosen life path and not allowing the outside world to get them down or force them to change who they wanted to be.

"Whether or not that peace march you're going on does anything to stop the war or not, just remember to keep on truckin'!"
